funman1 Active member Feb 14, 2007 #2 I have drilled tanks, there's nothing to it really. A diamond bit for a dermel ($8.99) and some water. Just take your time and go slow. In this thread I drilled a 10G cheapo tank. These are very hard because the glass is SOO thin!!! A bigger tank would have thicker glass and thus be much better and less risky http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1035930&highlight=drilling
