![]() Bulk Reef Supply sells them under their plumbing section but I would call a couple of local glass companies first as they may sell them or tell you of a local dealer. A lfs may do it for you as well as a good price so if this is a one time thing it may not be worth doing it yourself.

![]() I ordered mine on ebay. I got 3 for under $20 with shipping. They came with 3 different sizes. They where shipped from China but i recieved them super fast and they worked great!! If you call around to look for some i found people have a better understanding if you call them diamond coated hole saws.

![]() Megs Clark is right, call them diamond coated hole saws when calling around. I knew right away what you were asking so I didn't even thing that others may not, especially if you try Home Depot or some place like that, they don't know what people are asking them at the best of times.

![]() Careful, some 5g tanks are made with 1/8" glass. That's-a-gonna-breaka super easy. Apparently it can be done (although not by me, apparently, I found that out after a few too many attempts).
