Thinking about two of these

What do you guys think of this? It looks easy to do. What about the performance of it, and noise?

I just saw this.

This looks like I could drill two holes and use one box. It may be an advantage though to have two overflows on each end of the tank. Just thinking outloud.

For your size tank, one overflow is all you need. My old 180 only has 1 overflow
