I'm finally starting my new build (hopefully)!! I found a nice used 14g eurostyle at a steal and am thinking I can drill and use it as a frag tank. Only problem is, I'm not sure this tank can be drilled? I'd want to drill the back panel, nothing else.

Thanks!

Do some research to see if the glass is tempered or not. If it is you might have to think of another pane to drill

I've been doing research on the brand, and it seems that the cubes aquatop makes is from low iron glass, which I've found threads on others drilling. However, I've found nothing which lists the materials for the bowfront aquariums. Maybe I can do a tempered glass test?
