The plan is to get creative and run a Herbie on this tank. I'm going to reduce the 1.5" to 1" to free up some space in that overflow. Then I'm going to drill a 1" hole thru the back of the tank and toss a 90 on it pointing up to act as my emergency drain.
I don't have the tank in my hands so there might not be room to do this but I'm going to try very hard to make it work and avoid redoing that overflow.
The back will be scraped and I will be painting it and 1 side black. Overflow will be covered with live rock.
