Brand New 8 gallon bio cube

Put them on and look at an empty tank. If its tempered than it will be black or dark ovals throughout the glass. Might need a white paper to block looking through and seeing the other panels. Make sure you look at all the sides because it maybe a combo of glass. Dont assume because one panel isn't tempered all are the same. Most of the time the bottom will be tempered to cut cost.
Sounds good. As long as one long side pane isn’t tempered I’m good to go for drilling right?

Sounds like a plan, Elizabeth and I are going to a movie in a few hours and there’s a petco next door, we will be rockin sunglasses at night in petco with her iPad for the blue back light lol. This should be interesting lol.
Hey this is cool...aqueon website says anytime tempered glass is substituted, a sticker will be put on the bottom. FYI, they also specify any drilling or tampering voids the warranty.

Good to know!

I figured, lol. Homeowners insurance covers my aquarium stuff if it breaks, I’ve found that easier than dealing with all these manufacturers.

Sorry, to say but that's not always the case.They may "claim" that but they dont. All 3 tanks I tested at my local fish store were suppose to be tempered bottom only and had no stickers but all 3 tanks had tempered for all the panels.
