Thank you! The Overflow in mine was most definitely glass, in fact not only was the back wall, but all the baffles were glass as well. It was incredibly well glued in there, and I used an old pair of extraction gloves to keep my hands safe while clearing it out.
Wow, you weren't lying, those panels are really glued in there! I managed to pull the panels and all baffles without breaking one, so that's cool. Going to drop the big panel off at a glass shop today. Fingers crossed that everything breaks where it's supposed to!
You are not kidding! I think I broke 20 Scapul blades getting that sucker out, and the reason I used the knife is that that is floss and wire just kept getting cut or breaking. I used to worry about Silicone failing, after that experience and realizing how hard it holds on, I have zero concerns now.Wow, you weren't lying, those panels are really glued in there!

It's funny, I got the glass cut Friday. Had to use your pics to prove to each of the three glass shops I went to that it wasn't tempered glass! The third one was finally willing to take my request. 10 minutes later and I had a new overflow.
Haha! That's awesome. Glad the pictures helped!
That's what's weird about this series. It's basically an AIO but with a sump. So they left the filters in the overflow, and basically had a 3 chamber sump for whatever you want. I'll be modifying that too to fit a reefmat.
Oh! I get it now. Wow, that is a weird design! I would much rather have more in tank space, and that stuff in the sump like you are doing. The reefmat in that thing is going to be Killer! Do you have a build thread going?
