I am assuming that this is a corner overflow box that must be installed in some way other than the typical hangon overflows? I will visit the site, if it is a standard overflow box, this thread will be removed, since there is already a thread about it in the retailers forum.... Please check back though and put some comments about it in our product review section, which should be up soon.

Ok, I see they are internal overflow boxes, and seem to be priced pretty good. Looks like a nice alternative to hang on overflow boxes, provided your williing to take your tank to a glass shop and have it drilled. Is there a problem sealing the acrylic to glass? Does it simply use regular silicone aquarium sealant? Do instructions come with the unit on how to install it?
