Risky and you have to drain enough water to keep the box out of water for 24hrs

Draining the water low enough for 24 hours wouldn't be an issue at all, as my rock and coral are only about 3/4 of the way up. Im more just worried about the actually drilling process itself. My friend says he can do it and he's done it before. But Id just like to know what I'm getting myself into before i decide to go ahead with it.

Your biggest risk is that the panel cracks and spills your entire tank on the floor in a matter of seconds.
