I was wondering if I could drill a 20 high tank that has been sitting in my garage for years. I don't know who the manufacturer is or anything. Is there a way to tell if it would be safe to drill into it?

I've been looking into bulkheads. What size would you guys recommend to get 10X flow through my sump for the 20 gallon? I have decided that it's going to be a softie reef tank. I don't think the bottom of my 20 is tempered. It's hard to tell where the sun wasn't out and I need to clean the bottom out because it's been sitting in my garage for the last few months.
I recommend Gl*******s for all your overflow and glass drilling needs. I just drilled a tank last night . I have drilled hundreds of tanks in the last 30 years and I like the glass holes kits because the come with everything you need bits bulkhead fittings and patterns for drilling. I use blue painters tape on the inside to let me know when I am close to finished. You will see bits of blue tape floating around. The last little bit is the hardiest part as the bit wants to grab.
