How to drill a glass reef aquarium?



Your better off having a glass shop do it. a few considerations though..

  • a glass shop wont guarantee that they Don't break it
  • most tanks bottoms are tempered and you/they cant drill that.
  • If you want a drilled bottom you have to order a special non tempered bottom
  • some good LFS (local fish stores) can drill the tank


Out of 10+ holes I have had drilled they (glass shops) never broke a tank on me and charge$10 - $15 per hole
most important is to bring the fittings with you when you do have it drilled
