I want a 200g tank with in internal overflow box, all of the pics I have seen with this size tank have had two overflow boxes in the tank, can you buy them with just one overflow box, that is what I want?

You can have one. It depends on where your bulkheads are,bulkhead size and the size of the return pump. I have a 220 I am setting up and it has (2) 2" bulkheads on the end and I am going to use a custom internal box (18"X5"X8") that covers both holes. They also have them here already made: Dart Overflow Box - Glass-Holes.com dope aquarium stuff

FWIW, just another suggestion. Homemade horizontal overflow on my 75 gallon, aka "coast to coast overflow." ...
If built out of tinted glass or acrylic, with a black background, can be almost invisible in the tank. Also does not take up space at the bottom of the tank. Only sticks out about 1 inch at the top.
This is a different tank, but this is the way I did the plumbing at the back. Two 1" drains tied into one 1.5" main drain back to the sump.
I loved this overflow and really wish I had incorporated it in my 140 upgrade.
