Yes do this.. if you don;t mine losing 6" off your tank silicone a 24X23 sheet of plexy with teeth on the top to make a overflow box in the end.. then put two 1.5" bulkheads on the bottom so you can go with two durso's. even if you only need 1 you can plug the other while you are not using it. or leave it a little taller for a "emergency spill" if the main one fails.

When I move the tank this fall everything will be going into a waiding pool and I will be putting a overflow box in mine.. I wish I would have done that in the first place instead of spending to much time reading on alternatives
