Tank drilling

I think he was referring to the green grass in the video. We haven't seen it for a while now.

He was talking about the grass in the background.

You would attach the overflow box using silicone caulk for aquariums and then use a Bulkhead to attach the plumbing through the glass.

Also, you can use some squeeze clamps to clamp a piece of wood (like a chunk of 2x4) to the glass under where you are drilling so you get a clean cut all the way through. You won't get the "chip" marks that I got if you do it that way when the drill cuts the plug out.

Cool, nice tip... Yeah, I live in Phoenix, so there isn't much green grass here.... unless you REALLY take care of it and water it plenty.....

Hey fiji what brand of bit were you using there???

[Fiji Live Rock]

Sent you a PM.

I don't remember the brand, though it was around $80 and it was a 1-3/4" bit for a 1" BH.
