i just called aqueon and they informed me that the glass is tempered (toughened) glass. means do no drill. i guess i am going to return the 40 breeder tank.

Oh I gotchya. Good call contacting themthe overflow i got is for the sides...but if someone answered about drilling the bottom i would get a corner internal overflow and apply silicone
i bought my 40B used and i drilled it without second guessing things. a 60$ loss is better than just keeping a tank just to have an extra(unless you have the room, then by all means go for it lol). unless you meant returning it? not sureyeah.... even if it's 59.99 it's still something i could use somewhere else i'll just have to wait when aqueon rans out of tempered and start making nontempered glass
You got a laptop or cell phone, checking for tempered glass can be quick and easy. Put a laptop screen or cell phone screen inside the tank and look at it through the glass with a pair of polarized sunglasses. Completely black screen is non tempered, black lines is tempered.Hi guys. Today , I purchased my 40 gallon breeder at Petco in Queens, NY for 59.99, normally 119.99. I want to drill the bottom. I wasnt sure what to look for, nor I don’t know how to test anything. However I have drilled the back no problem both for overflow and return. Since my apartment is tiny drilling the bottom would make better sense for me. Worst case I can drill the side if doable. But again bottom is better. Anyone tried it yet?
If bottom isn’t possible, then side it is…can anyone show me a peninsula setup please?
