    Drilling large aquariums isn't easy. See the aftermath for yourself. Check out our updated video of drilling these tanks and see if our method actually worked: ruclips.net/video/p94iyg6F7f0/видео.html

    Thanks all for watching the progress of this 125 gallon fish room build! A huge shout out to TOSOT Direct for hooking us up to help with our water issues. It means a lot. Check them out if you are in the market for a super quiet dehumidifier: www.amazon.com/dp/B07B4WHPMF

      I like painted backs but vinyl is a huge time and $ saver on big tanks and Its not permanent. you should consider it, it comes out nice!

    13 min of talk and no drilling. Man I was hoping to see at least one hole drilled.

    Nice set up! And Good luck! I tried drilling my 135 gallon reef tank and it exploded on me. Luckily I was good friends with the maker of tank and got another for half price. Mine actually have stamps on all bottom corners around the tank saying tempered.

    Please… where did you buy your tanks? I can’t find any good deals to start a store in nc

    I’m looking to do something similar but with 12 125s. Can you buy the tanks directly from aqueon or do you need to go through a dealer?

  • @thefishylife6823
    @thefishylife6823 5 лет назад

    I don't understand why aqueon can't tell you if their tanks are tempered? I've drilled aqueon 75 and 55 gallon tank before but I was drilling blind and still have no idea if they were or were supposed to be tempered, it worked though!!! Good luck Rob I hope you get them all no issue cracks or anything, that's alot of tanks!!!

    The dark lines with the tempered glass test doesn't always work. Some panes of glass are hardened and don't have those dark bands in the center of the panes. You have to look along the edges for those dark bands running parallel to the edges. Very easy to miss and it is possible to drill these panes of glass all the way, but they could shatter at any moment. Newer phones don't have the same level of polarizing that older phones did. Find an old laptop or phone for best results. Then use a solid white screen at full brightness.
    My favorite lenses to use are the 3D theater glasses at IMAX movies. Pop out those lenses. The polarity is stronger than most sun glasses and each lenses is set at 90 degrees apart. Then use a flashlight to shine through both of them with the glass between the two lenses.

    Try some hydraulic cement on the interior wall where the waters coming in should work mintttyyy

    Aqueon bottoms on big tanks should be Tempered and the sides should be regular glass.

    My 60g is tempered from Marineland. I’d never have the courage to drill a brand new tank! I would like to try having a sump though..... I suppose there’s no good way to do that without an overflow

      Lily A. I dont really like drilling tanks either, on my saltwater tank I bought a lifereef overflow, which has never EVER lost siphon, even if the power goes out!

    Why not put all the tanks on the racks and then paint and drill?

    Bro,.. flexseal won't hold up long term,.. well it didn't for me.
    U prolly need to get the roll on water barrier for waterproofing basements. Lowes has it for like $95 for 5gallon bucket. A penny for your thoughts,....

    Rob.. was wondering why anchor the tank stands to the top when you could just screw legs from the bottom of the stand to the floor and use aluminum angle iron and bolt them to the concrete floor

    Couldn't Aqueon just confirm what type of glass it is?

    • @rapmelodies
      @rapmelodies 5 лет назад

      Rene Decquir no because they use whatever glass they can get their hands on.
