Where do all you maast-type people go to have your tanks drilled?
I am looking for somewhere that is a combination of being reliable
and as-cheap-as-possible.
Thanks,
-jesse-
*Whoever said nanos are cheaper is full of skimmate*

Check with Aquatic Warehouse, Fin Addict, or Pete here. You'll be limited to whatever size bits they have.

Yeah, Gary is right, either of those places, or Pete ( ~pete~ ). Aquatic Warehouse does a really good job.
LOL, nanos ARE cheaper.... :skeezy

No not me!!! I never followed through and purchased the bits. You want to buy them?? ;)
I had mine drilled at forever pets (in back aquatrends) and they did a perfect job.

Don't know who does it in Austin, but I'd just ask a few of the shops.
I did my own and would be willing to assist if you want to tackle it. I've got an 1 1/4" bit. I was willing to take the risk of damaging my own tanks, but they were only 10 gallon tanks. Slow, easy, wet and clamped down very securely, but not too tight as to stress the glass.
