Tank id

I have a 125 I'd like to drill. But I have no idea of the make. The stand that it presently sitting on is a perfecto. So odds are the tank is too? It's my understanding that some tanks are made with tempered glass on the bottom and the sides are not. This tanks bottom panel is marked as tempered. Anyway I'm hoping to identify this tank as one I can drill.
Here's the only identifying marking I could find. Thanks

I have an aqueon 40 breeder with temper bottom but regular sides which I've happily drilled. Granted, if I shatter the tank, I was only out forty dollars and a tank until the next Petco sale.
 
It definitely looks like a marineland (Perfecto mfg.) tank. They have that little built by sticker with the anchor on their tanks.
 
I'm not certain on the bigger tanks. I think the smaller ones like 55 and under are just the bottom, but I could be wrong. You can go onto Marineland's website and then to the support link. They have a customer service # you can call and they should be able to verify for you.
 
Or, there are ways to check if the glass is tempered. LED torch and/or sunglasses help. YouTube how to tell if glass is tempered.
 
Ya I'll need to try something other than reaching out to Marineland. I contacted there support on there Facebook page and they just keep deleting my questions. I'll try the YouTube thing,thanks for your help :facepalm:
