Thanks for the input, I learned the hard way to ask you guys 1st before buying. If I don't have a predrilled tank, how do it?? I was thinking about getting one of the super systems, which is an 80 tank like this

Aquariums with Stands: Perfecto Aquarium 80 Gallon Euro Prestige Super System

they have everything under the tank, from what I understand, is this a better tank to have?? Just seems more convient, but pricey. I am not too mechanically inclined
