I have the diamond bits 3/4" - 1" - and - 1 1/2" I have not drilled glass yet but if you bring over your tank we can give it a shot.

i can drill it for you. i got a 3/4 inch coated hole saw that would make a good drain.
im 5 minutes away from where the meeting is going to be so i could do it before it takes around 25 minutes

I just drilled 2 10 gal using a dremel tool and a glass etching bit. Kept water running over it the whole time and took about 5 min. The edges were very clean and not sharp. The bit cost 9.50 at Lowes.
Good luck
