? about overflow box for drilled tank

so i decided to get my tank drilled. i was just wondering if there is a website out there to get the black box with the notches. Where should i have the holes drilled? How far up from the bottom should the hole be. And do you recommend that i have another hole drilled on the opposite site of the tank for the return from the sump?

http://www.melevsreef.com/shop/index.html You can try that site for an overflow. Not sure how much it will be, since you will have to contact him for a quote.

Perhaps I'm confused, but I thought if you had a drilled tank you didn't use an overflow box.
None of the drilled tanks I've seen had one.

Depends on where the tank is drilled and the plumbing involved.

I don't know if this will help. Check aquariumguys they have the type of overflow i think you are looking for. The link below shows the setup you are talking about:
