Now you find a spot for the overflow box. Put it into the tank and if somebody could hold it still for a minute that'd be helpful. You have to fill the left side with water so it won't keep trying to float. Then you lower your pump into the box, put the box where you want it and tighten those 3 plastic screws on the front. I no longer have mine but here is the only pic I could find... I'll look for more...
Perfect description!!! Except my box was upgraded by a reefer friend, he attached suction cups on the back of the box. I was able to do it by myself without help. It works great while I had it up, but I took it down when I installed my sump/fuge. So now the box is just laying around collecting dust until I find another use for it. I tend to find use for stuffs I have laying around sooner or later, they come in handy sometime..... :happyfish
