Drilling Aquarium

[Ramon Estevez]

Hey there I just bought a 75 gallon aquarium the manufacturer label says it’s an Allglassaquariums tank. Anybody know if it’s safe to drill?

Typically if it can’t be drilled there is a sticker on it saying that it can’t be drilled.
Although the manufacturer(All Glass Aquariums) could tell you.
You can also try these options...

A better test is to view a laptop computer screen thru the glass panel with a quality pair of polarized sunglasses. Rotate the sunglasses + or - 90 deg. If the laptop screen goes black the glass is not tempered. If the screen does not completely darken and you see wavy patterns—it’s tempered. The structure of tempered glass causes polarized light from a laptop to scatter so it cannot be completely filtered by polarized sunglasses.

That test was in the link I included.
It will work with a cell phone too.
