Is your tank pre drilled for overflows?

where the previous overflows cut down? if not, why not measure them.

I actually just installed a quarter-cylinder overflow which terminated exactly 1/4” below the tank’s plastic rim….

The teeth height in the overflow will dictate the tank’s operating water height (water will pack up, and be ~1/4” above the bottom rim of each tooth), so plan accordingly off that more than anything!
