I feel comfortable commenting on your particular question, but Red Sea Reefer Deluxe models came with AI lights and the unique Red Sea mount drilled holes in the back of the tank! It really ticked a lot of people off, including some people that ordered regular Red Sea Reefer tanks and it came pre-drilled for the AI lights with covers if you didn't use the lights. So clearly some of the Reefer's are drillable, don't know about your particular model.

Good luck.

p.s. Red Sea is super fast via email support. They almost always reply within a common hours during normal business hours. Email now, have a response by 11am tomorrow.

Yeah,
The last time that I talked to Kevin Davies about that:

He said that all Red Sea tank's glass are not tempered.

So, you can drill the Red Sea glass, but your always taking a chance... ;Nailbiting
