I recently bought a 55g tank and stand and was wondering a good place to get it drilled in the huntsville or birmingham area. Anyone make custom canopies? My husband could but might not look that great lol. Also suggestions for LFS to check out would be great!
thanks in advance

I've read that drilling is fairly easy with the right diamond bit. brs sells them. check out some YouTube vids to determine if it's something you would want to tackle. if you decide to let someone else you could try local glass shops.

I have the bits to drill but haven't needed them yet. Willing to let someone borrow or buy them. I believe I have the bits for 3/4 and 1" bulkheads.
