glass drilling
« on: September 18, 2013, 09:11:00 AM »
Just wondering if there is anybody on here with any glass drilling experience around the Westland area. I'm looking into possibly drilling my first tank and have no clue what to do
55 gallon PS. williamsi north, elongatus chewere and syndontis petricola

40 breeder synodontis petricola with an asian twist. A pair of chinese vermillion gobies and a trio of betta splendens.

40 breeder soon to be salty fish with live rock, possibly adding some lps and soft corals after

Hey sky drilling tanks are easy.  Get you a junk tank to practice on. Go slow and keep the drill bit wet the whole time. After the first hole you will be amazed how easy it was to drill glass. Ryan's tip for the day do not drill tempered glass it will brake. Lol. Good luck.
