Predrilled tank…?

[Jeremiah G]

Hi all,

Thanks to your help I have decided to go with the 90 gallon tank.

Now, my next question- to get a predrilled tank or not?
With my old scratched 75 gallon I have two overflow boxes on hand.

Its only 100 dollars more for the predrilled and Im leaning that way aesthitically.

What are your thoughts/experiences?

Cheers,
-Jeremiah

I would consider the placement. I had a corner flow tank once, which two drilled holes in the bottom; it was pretty great. I could put it flush against the wall and all the plumbing was hidden.

My 220 gallon I had drilled on the end, and built cabinetry around it... It made the most sense for what I wanted to do with the tank (it is in a wall between two rooms). If I had a tank which was going up against a wall, I would go the corner flow route again...

I never even thought of the fact that the overflow boxes will take up extra space behind the tank.
I don't have the extra space for them!
Looks like predrilled it is; thanks sbash
