Anyone in my area drill tanks? Central NJ

I wouldn't use a tank that had cracked like that. Not worth the potential loss of property. I put enough water on my floors without starting off with one foot in the sump.

Hi - You can have this done quickly and cost-effectively by FishTales (...or is it "Fishtails"?) on Rt 88 in Brick, 732-714-0040. I dropped off a 75 gal glass tank for a new basement sump, had two holes drilled for 1" bulkhead, and had it back the next day. Cliff over there charges $25 a hole, while the local glass shops - the ones willing to drill an assembled fishtank - where charging $35 a hole. He did a good job. The only thing I might do is take a dremel stone to the back edge to clean up the hole edged some, just to alleviate any potential stress risers. I have two more tanks to get drilled to complete the setup. I'm going back... Good luck!
