Many aquarium manufacturers offer pre-drilled tanks. AGA's "Reef Ready" tanks are predrilled with an overflow and come with a kit containing bulkheads and standpipes.

Oceanic Systems (www.oceanicsystems.com) also has a line of "Reef Ready" aquariums.

Thumbs down

If the bottom glass is tempered, then it will shatter when drilled.

Pre-drilled tanks are drilled first and then tempered by heating.
