Lol

I'm actually thinking of running the glass-holes 1500 kit, with 2 returns on each side.

 

[thecodfather]

Well I mean one on each side.

 

[Brando457]

The tank I'm getting has the return over the top and 2 individual overflow boxes, I guess I could technically use only one overflow box and make the other hole for my return, idk hwo to drill a tank otherwise I'd consider drilling the returns.

I told you....Hanover Pet will drill it...call them.

Or get the glass drill bit from Glass Holes....we can do it.

Is it worth paying for/risking just to keep the clean look of not having the pipes come over the top :x? If I order that bit and we crack that tank, I will cry!

Check my tank thread I drilled a 90 gal in 1 min 30 secs we can do it

Sent from my Piece of crap Sprint Epic

go to the glass shop next to redsand aquarium. They will drill the tank for 15 dollars and assume liability once you can prove that the back/sides are not tempered... they told me dosen't even matter if its tempered that they have done tempered tanks as well.... its just that......
