Pre-drilled?

Does being pre-drilled make it easier to set up a sump/fuge? I am not planning on reef, but I would like to set up that stuff in the stand. I am thinking of getting a 125G.

Thanks!

Yes being pre drilled makes it easier on you so that you dont have to carry it somewhere to do it. Yes all you`ll have to do is get your refuge or sump kit and install. Better to get pre drilled.

Sweet! Thanks, back to looking at tanks. You know of a good place to get them at a good price? I live in WV, not far from PA/MD/VA....Meaning, I could drive, if needed.

Yeah, my LFS tends to be very pricey. SW Master's kit is like $28.99. I looked at a few online and the shipping almost makes it the same price as the LFS...LOL!

I agree w/ melosu58, pre-drilled tanks are the way to go if you can find one in your price range!
