Looking for somebody to drill hole on my tank
 
Hi everyone I'm just wondering if somebody in lower mainland who could drill a hole on my tank for drain and return, it's a 72g bow.

Thanks.

holes
 
Dan at Aquatic Addictions has A glass drill. I do not know what he charges though. You would probably have to bring the tank to the store.

I drilled my biocube myself with my friend diamond thingy..it way cheaper than paying someone else to do it.

You can also pm "seahorse fanatic". He's got a drilling bit I think.

I got Dan at Aqquatic Additions to do it for me. He did a great job! I am very happy with it. He's got a proper drill that gives even pressure to help avoid cracking the tank. Just a suggestion.....

Im not sure, but Im pretty sure the bottom glass pane on most 72G+ bowfronts(oceanic/allglass) are tempered...
Not sure if you were thinking drilling the bottom? or back pane?
Cheers!

Yes they are tempered.
You can buy the bowfronts already pre-drilled to your specs from the factory. But of course special order means special price.

You might have to do it on the side of the tank further down.
