Is that possible? I was looking for info on it this afternoon.

I have shaved off glass with my die grinders(Dremel) before and if you take your time it should come out nice. It does leave quite a bit of a mess though, most likely have to tape off the tank with cardboard cut to size and masking tape. I also put masking tape on the glass outlining where I need it to stop as a reference and it will prevent the glass from the possiblity of cracking. I am no expert by any means, this is just from my own experience. Contact a local glass shop and as the what is the best but to use.

Ha. Fixed it good. Concepts is cutting me new ones including overflow teeth.

Of course that means draining tank, and cutting it out. Blah

Thanks everyone for all the good advice.
