Drilling a glass Tank?

[Noobeef]

OK, I've asked around at all the hardware stores and LFSs and no one seems to know where I can get my tank drilled. I don't want to do it myself, and WON'T do it myself so all options in that realm are null and void. I live in Southern California and I want a 1 inch hole drilled at the top of a 20 gallon tank so I can have a trickle down fuge behind my display tank propped up about 3 inches above it.

Look in the yellow pages for shops that specialize in glass, you should have some luck there. Chances are theres a reef club where you live with some one who has the tools also. Either way it shouldn't be too painful.

Try Reef Central. There probably a local reefer near you that is handy. Ya I would try a glass shop like one that makes windows. I have one near me and found out that one of the Guys there told me that they could have drilled my tank for me for like a 1$.

Also look for people that deal with glass sinks, but most glass shops should be able to do it. IReef IKeeper and I are working on a DIY video on glass drilling, should be done soon. It's really not that hard.
