Seapora 80 Gallon

[AustinBarthel]

Hi, I was wondering if anybody knew if the seapora rimless 80 gallon frag tank had tempered or non tempered glass. I am wanting to drill the back panel for 1 overflow and 2 return lines.

I always use the polarized sunglasses test before I drill. I have found glass that is marked as tempered turn out to be non-tempered and other glass that I was assured would not be tempered that I found out were tempered. Having a piece of glass explode when you are drilling it, isn't something you forget!

@AustinBarthel I just bought the same tank. Did you figure out if the back glass can be drilled?

No I haven't found out for sure yet

I'm looking to purchase this same tank "Seapora 80 gallon rimless with no overflow", did anyone find a sure answer if it's non tempered glass on all 4 sides?
I found this website from thefishroom.com but I can't find anything from seapora Specifications sheet.

I know this is a few months old but I have the same question. I’m looking to buy a Seapora 90 and would like to know if I have the option to drill and go the external overflow route. I’d love to avoid the corner overflow taking up valuable space.

If anyone is still wondering about these tanks this chart can help. I was sent this when inquiring about another Seapora tank.

This is SUPER helpful, thanks.

My understanding is that Seapora and Aquarium Masters and Deep Blue are all differently-labeled versions of the same product - is that correct? If so, then presumably this chart applies to the other brands, as well.
