Most likely just the bottom is tempered. You could have the back drilled for a Calfo style overflow or you could get an overflow box.

Looking foreward to pics!

You can always go with a hang on back overflow and use a sump/fuge below you tank.

thanks.. is calflo the only way i can go or can i still use a hang on the back??

Hang on back is more susceptible to problems but it will work. The Calfo method (named after Anthony Calfo) would work best.
