Just run the tank an inch low and plug the intake and output holes. That way if you ever want to use a W/D you can.

call the AGA sales rep or mau. and ask what they think??thats your bet bet.

the new overflows have holes in the middle of the box so that wouldnt work.

^^Thats a good call, and get there name so if something happens you can say "jon doe" told me thats how I should do it, then it shouldn't void your warranty.

The AGA overflows have two baffles. The lower holes still won't drain until the top of the inside baffle is reached. put some bulk head fittings in it and cap them.

wont the water become stag nit? in the "baffle"

I guess you could setup a closed loop system to keep the water circulating.

The tank was meant to be run with a wet/dry. Reef ready is usually a couple hundred more dollars for the tank.
