That would be great. Let me know dimensions once you know so I can see if it fits...and a pic would be great.

Thanks David.

Sure thing, but on the side check this thread, maybe you would be more interested in the overflow this guys selling? Not sure if it will fit any better, but if it does I've done good.

Thanks Iplantz. From the dimensions I pulled online the wier is also slightly too large.

Anyone know where to get one that's super small??? I guess less than 200gph.

Ace aka Hobogato has built me custom overflows in the past. He built me a 2" super thin one at one time so I could have my tank as close to the wall as possible. Send him a message and im sure you guys can work something out

Yeah, he modded my sump for me too...I may have to contact him if I don't find something in the next couple of days.
