Believe it's the small one. I'll have to check. I've never used an over flow so clueless about much of that lol. It's like 6-8" long I believe. Was for my 40, but I've run all my tanks sumpless

I made my overflow for my drilled 110, fairly easy to make all you need is a table saw and acrylic+glue

I am just throwing this out there. I was originally going to go with an overflow box, but I learned that they are a true pain in the A**. I knew i was going to drill my tank for the return lines, so i found this Overflow box online... (glassholes.com) Its drilled therefore you never have to worry about air in the "u" tubes and an accidental overflow... They were a bit expensive but it is such a clean look in the tank, i found it was worth it!!!  Just throwing it out there.... |

Making one out of glass is SUPER easy. You can have Lowes or Home Depot cut the pieces for you and just silicone them together. Took me ten minutes and cost about $6.00

You could use a hang on back over flow though just take off the front piece. If you or someone else has those laying around. they could work easily. I'm sure someone like Rob, Christian or Ryan has one in there bone yard you could get. This is my extra one but it's clear and it's going on my tank soon. Attachments:

This is the one I made, only cost me about $20 dollars worth of 1/4 black acrylic I just used silicone to attach it to my back glass around the bulkheads, works awsome Attachments:
