even glass would work, almost looks easier if its precut.

24x24x24 is right around 60 gals, but you can purchase one of the newer 30 cubes by allglass I believe(?) they even come RR if youre willin gto pay a little more, but the stand and tank is like 299 I think

You can order the 30g from Oceanic predrilled. Then you must order a custom overflow. Other than that the bottom is tempered.

I would drill it if possible to save headaches down the road. Just my .02 cents.

How many tanks do you guys have? Are you getting bit by the tank bugs?
