Filed under: aquarium fish tanks
I tought I would make a video of me drilling 2 x 1 3/4″ holes on my main tank since there wasn’t many videos when I was trying to learn how to do it.
Drilling a hole would have cost me $25 a hole at the local fish store with no guarentee of not breaking the tank.
$15 for a bit that will last 5+ holes (I don’t know exactly how many it will last for) is my way to do things.
