Title: drilling tank
Post by: yellowtang on November 16, 2004, 07:12:08 PM
Does anybody here in the club knows of anybody or place where I
can have my 33g tank drilled. I opted for my tank to be overflow
instead.. I think my marine fish and corals would benefit from it.
tanks 8)

Be very careful because if I am not mistaken you cant drill tempered glass so make sure yours is not.

you cannot drill tempered glass. Contact the manufacturer of the tank first. Saltydog has drilled several tanks, by the way.
Ivan may also have contacts (sorry - dont know his username on this)
