Planned work this weekend on the marine tank build

1. Get two 6' lengths of 4"x6" and bolt them together
2. Collect 1 x Floor support acro

support floor under fish tank in basement so we can still party without risk of said tank making sink hole through living room floor and becoming an uninvited guest in the basement.

If i am lucky enough I might get the Aquascaping roughed in.

Need to get work bench for sump in the basement.

Aquascaping complete! I decided to go for a canyon in the end, its tough trying to be original without going off the wall and creating an unnatural scene. When sitting in the viewing seat ;) the canyon draws you through, more so as it narrows to a small opening. The photos do not really show this off well as they are 2D

I also wanted to keep rock well away from any of the sides to make maintenance easy.

Didn't see any foam under it....... Did you forget :mrgreen: nice tank build :biggrin:

for most of our tanks we build on a plywood base, our tanks do not require foam underneathe but customers can choose it if they like.



cheers
