you can have someone drill your tank for you. it's the best solution. you can set up a sump and use external overflows, or you can go sumpless. I run a sumpless softie/lps reef (48x24x24) and now two years in, everything is fine.
good luck

I had a friend that had a beautiful 135 and it was not drilled; however, he was always dealing with his tank overflowing on to the living room carpet, because of his HOB overflow. After seeing what he went through - and what I had to go through when babysitting his tank - I will never use a HOB tank overflow. Have someone drill it for you and make your life so much simpler now and in the future.
