    I don't know if the bottom is tempered or not, I don't think there is anyway to cut tempered glass except maybe a water jet.

    there's also methods of determining if the glass is tempered or not.

    Ive drilled a few holes, even after doing this I will still have that nervous feeling when drilling, This was a buddys tank that he just picked up for me to cut down, He plans to grow frags out for sale/swaps that harvest from his 75rr
