To Drill or not to Drill

Building a Cube tank 24"cube.
Should I drill for an overflow? I have an overflow ready

Drilling the tank makes it alot easier to run a sump. I vote yes.

yes if it was acrylic, no if it was glass. I'm just to lazy to cut glass, so, that's why I said that

If you're confident that you can drill it, do it It makes life a lot easier.

I would drill also but if it's glass and you haven't drilled before I would say to go get a few cheap 10G from walmart and practice...... I read the DIY here on the forum and I busted all 5 sides of the first aquarium and 4 of the 5 sides on the second before I finally got a hole. I read it as I needed a super fast drill and go on high speed. When I successfully drilled the hole I would have said it was about a slow as I could convience my drill to go....... point is give it a practice go
