Both the bigger drains are piped and glued. I just wish I found out before i piped the tank :/
Since it's full, it's kind of tough. If it's possible to pull the dreambox out and tip it on it's side, you can probably get out out where the water overflows into the socks. If you have access to one of the drain intakes either because one isn't used or if you are using unions, you can use a "flexible claw pick up tool" to fish it out from the drain intake pipe. Given the buoyancy of objects in the water, I am a bit surprised you can hear it in there though.

This is a claw pickup tool. Given the direction of the flow of water, you may even be able to get it by snaking one of these through the side of the box where the water flows into the socks. These are cheap and readily available online. This would likely be my first course of action.
