You have to start a siphon. Put a airline hose in the end where the water is going to flow into the overflow box and suck one end until you see the water start to come over the tank and pull the tube out.

Yea thats fine...If you want it at the waterline just wait a day or 2 and the evaporation loss will even it out. I try and keep my water line just under my bioballs.
