jayR Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Anyone know if these AGA tanks are tempered? I was planning on getting a 55gallon and drilling the back for drain/returns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsoz Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Bottoms are tempered, but I think the sides are not. I just drilled an AGA 75 on the back-side and had no problem. Even though there was a warning pasted on the bottom to NOT DRILL. Good luck. If you need advice or help, there are a lot of people (including myself) that have done this to their tanks. dsoz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

civicsit Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Pretty sure that the bottoms on all AGA's are tempered. You could try it if you really want to, but I think it will shatter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidB Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 During last years petco sale I bought a 40 gallon and drilled the bottom. Unless they have changed recently you should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uhuru Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 There was a guy on RC with a 40b that had the bottom drilled - I asked him how he did it, he said the bottoms are not tempered on those tanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defigart Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Bottoms are tempered, but I think the sides are not. I just drilled an AGA 75 on the back-side and had no problem. Even though there was a warning pasted on the bottom to NOT DRILL. Admit it Dennis, you drilled the front and turned it around. (laugh)(whistle)DOH! Just kidding, when do we get to see an update of your build? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidalsculpin Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 I drilled a 40. Here is the proof. http://www.pnwmas.org/forums/showthread.php?t=3961 Miles, Jay and Stacy can verify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mister crabs Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 i know you can drill the back....but what about the bottom? are the new ones still not tempered? anyonet hat had drilled the bottom of one what was teh date of manufacture on your tank? if you remember or still have the little "made by" tag with the date on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidalsculpin Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Yes, you can drill the bottom. The last pic in my thread is of the bottom. check out this rc thread. This guy did it this year. I assume his tank was made recently. http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1103736&highlight=breeder+drill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
