I did the same thing when I turned a 20g into a sump. I laid the tank on its back and added just enough water to wet the area I was going to drill the hole. I used the round diamond bit and just went slow. It still only took about 10 minutes to do it.

You can make a small dam out of plumbers putty to help keep the bit cooled and lubricated with water.
