I just got a 40 gallon bow front serial t1118119 sticker on bottom of glass says tempered but is the back glass? I need to drill tonight if it is okay? Anyone know?

I would say only the bottom is tempered as I've drilled the back of that same kind of tank before, if I remember correctly they only ever temper the bottom of most tanks that have any tempering at all anyway.

Could be wrong, but I don't think I have ever seen one with tempered on the back panel.
