So wait, I misread this, so you had drilled it yourself?

Good stuff, man!

Look on the bright side, at least it was just a little 10 gal.

Do you need another 10 gal to do some work on?

I have drilled a few 10s. Broke a couple too. The glass is so thin on the small tanks, gotta be careful.

Oh no, it was just me playing around with sump idea's, it was already pre-drilled and i just added a little more customizing to it. I'd decided on not using this part of the sump setup right before i broke it anyways, lol. I was taking the pvc out so I could drain/remove the tank and that's when it broke. But at least i finally got that part of the hobby out of the way. Havn't broken a tank before (I've had tanks break, but not because of me )

Still got a few extra 10g sitting around waiting for me to break. The actual drilling went very well, quick, and looked nice.
