drill

Finally upgrading to a sump from my canister setup. I'm just ordering everything now and doing all of the planning. I got the Eshopps medium overflow box kit, and that comes with a 1.5" diamond drill bit for the overflow. For the return I am planning on getting a Jebao DC pump and soft plumbing...

Hello fellow saltines, This is actually for a stand holding my freshwater tank but I figure the knowledge might come in handy for a future stand for my saltwater tank. The stand is fairly well made but it's lacking shelves in the cabinet area. Totally makes sense for a large canister filter but...

Hello everyone, as many experienced reefers know. Caves are important and sometime you need to make some for specific fish. Well I have an idea, it is to take my rock and drill caves into it. Instead of creating caves with multiple rocks. Has anyone done this? If so can you post pictures?

Hi guys, I'm in Warminster 18974 and we just bought a 125 gallon tank. I would like to drill the overflow, but I have no experience with this. Is there anyone in the area who might be able to help ? Thanks in advance!

We recently bought a 120 gallon tank that is drilled. It is our first drilled tank but have had saltwater tank in the past. My husband has epilepsy and Parkinson's and cannot plumb it but we are able to take care of it once it is plumbed. We live in Streator, IL if you can help it would be...

Alright. So dilemma here. I have a 55 gallon acrylic tank. Had it up and running for approx 6 months. When I bought it, all it had for a return is a 1" hose. I want to hardplumb the tank so I purchased all the piping I'd need and bulkheads. The return goes into the tank from the top, so there's...
