Micheal,

The 28g is a Topfin tank. Don't know if it can be drilled. The 42g hex is an Oceanic tank. LFS guy told me they use tempered glass for Oceanic tank bottoms and cannot be drilled.

Is Topfin the brand you see at Petsmart? I think my 20g is a Topfin ... and I drilled it, no problem.

But tanks with tempered bottoms ... yeah don't drill those. :mrgreen: Hopefully they have a sticker that says "Tempered" .. at least I've seen some tanks with that. .. Very considerate of them to let us know before we attempt anything... :eek:

Our 155g bowfront had a tempered bottom, so they drilled the holes in the back instead - the standpipe was then L shaped.

yeah that what i w as going to do on that one.
