Broke my ext. OF box

[treesprite]

I had to move my tank, and in the process I broke the external box, which was glass. It was a glass box with 3 holes in the bottom.

 

I'm not in a position to make a new one, so I need to ask you folks if anyone knows where I can get just the external box, without having to buy an inside as well? It has to be able to attach without being held by bulkheads, because I'm not taking out my internal overflow, and because my tank holes were not drilled in specific positions for a pre- lmanufactured box. 

 

The tank itself has two 1.5 inch exits, which won't work for a BA, I need an external with 3 holes.

I'm assuming it's innovative marine? Possibly contact them?

The external box was DIY.

Try Modular Marine. They build custom overflows.

Ok, I think I understand.  You need a four sided overflow (bottom, left, right, rear) that you can silicone to the back of your glass tank.  That's why the typical pre-manufactured 5-sided overflow box won't work.  And you want the bottom of the overflow to be drilled with three holes for your plumbing.

Exactly

Could someone make one for me?

I guess I'm going to have to go back to just having just noisy pipes. I can't get a glass box without making it myself, which I just can't do any time soon.
