I know I was able to drill my 75G RR, for my closed loop... but I've heard rumors that they are tempered. Not sure if I got lucky or if Perfecto has changed how they make their tanks.

That is the list for their standard tanks. They normally put a sticker on the panel that is tempered

If you drill a perfecto tank you void the warranty.

Just so you know

I've drilled several Perfecto tanks, no problem.

Even the bottom pane? The 75g or 90g ones I have looked at have a "DO NOT DRILL" sticker on the bottom pane.
