It has too. I'm am seriously considering a sump upgrade in the future. Right now everything is moving over

I'm only suggesting it now because it would be easiest to drill the tank now rather than later when it's setup. Another option would be to drill the tank then plug the holes with bulkheads for a sump upgrade down the road. Or plumb your canister into them in the mean time...

I understand but not in the cards at the moment. Well let's see if it's even drillable

The glass temp is at 64 water temp is at 73 can I put water in this tank with out feed of cracking

If it's tempered, and I'm guessing it is because you cannot drill it, then you are good to go. As a matter of fact, if it is tempered, you could fill it with boiling water and have no fears.

Not drillable
If you do want a sump at any point, there is a “ghost overflow” that lets you create an overflow box without actually drilling any holes in your tank. Pretty easy DIY for any reasonably handy person, I’m sure even @crusso1993 could pull it off ;)

15 buckets. And my tank looks like it has been set up for the first time.
