Does anyone know if the All Glass Aquariums fish tanks can be drilled or not? I'm planing on buying one and it doesn't have any overflows and would like to add a couple, but I want to make sure it can be drilled before buying it. Thanks!

Im almost 99.9% sure that any panel of that tank can be drilled BESIDES the bottom. The bottom should be tempered and cannot be drilled.

Thanks! I just wanted to make sure.
Is it possible to "try" to drill a tank that's currently running? I mean try to dill the sides? Maybe draining some water and put something on the inside of the tank so the glass won't fall into the tank? A friend of mine has his running and wants to drill it

Awesome set-up Veni. Yours is a 72" long right? The one that I want to get is a 48". Do they use the same glass? I mean can the 48" be drilled as well? Do you have a pic of this tank running? Thanks!

Wow, that's a nice tank.
If I drill my tank from the back like yours. How would the overflows be built? I mean what could I use to keep the fish from going into the holes? I currently have a 55g that I want to use as a sump for the 120, is there a way to keep the holes in the 120 blocked/closed while it's running this way I'll have time to mod my 55g into a sump and not have my livestock die on me? Thanks!
