Getting ready to put order in on my tank upgrade. Going with custom build. Generally I agree that tempering is not necessary and usually not done in case someone wants option to drill at some point. Curious on thoughts if going custom and have the option to temper AFTER they drill it. Drilling does weaken glass (although not by much usually unless going crazy with the closed loop) so wondering if the tempering provides some peace of mind.
What I want to do is have two holes drilled in top back for overflow and 3 holes drilled in bottom for closed loop. It's going to be a framed aquarium so if I do go with tempering it'll be back and bottom panes only.
