Well, being the DIY forum you can make it yourself Or you can go to places like Marine Depot and get one there, I'm fairly sure most of the larger online vendors sell them separately. You might also ask your LFS if they have or can get you one.

I'm making an overflow currently using an acrylic storage box (one of those fancy kitchen containers) and just drilling holes in it, slicing the rim off the top (done) and my next step will be to put teeth on its edge.

Just something you might try.

I have had no association with this person/company, it's just the first decent link that came up in the search.
