If you can't find anyone of the hobbists here to do it, a any glass shop should be able to perform that service for you.

Hey Cam,

Ask Brad he should know, what size of hole were you thinking of having drilled?

I dont even know, all i know is that i don't want to setup a hang on skimmer so im going to go the sump route, but really don't know anything about it yet.
I image the size of hole will depend on what skimmer i get?
I should ask Brad my saltwater guru, he's down for the weekend with the flu or something, hopefully he gets better soon.

Call one of the shops in town that sells tanks, ask them if they drill tanks, and if they sell the fittings you would need.

I bet a glass shop would be alot cheaper than a aquarium shop, and they will have alot more experience with drilling glass also.
