Yup, unfortunately they didn't have any 10mm glass on hand, so I went with two layers of 1/4" (6mm) which are clamped together with lots of silicone spread in a thin layer (my visa will never be the same ) between them as I write this. I'm interested to find out if it'll cure all the way through in a sensible length of time since there's very little path for moisture to get in and cure it in the middle because it's sandwiched between two layers of glass. The guy at the shop reckoned about 24 hours should do it - I guess we'll find out when I drill the holes...!

At least I'm making progress again - albeit stuff I've already done once

I've got water in the 75!

Ok, so it's only fresh water - I'm still trying to cure my diy rocks, but I think this is the point where it should have a journal of it's own...

So this is the end of this tank, it's final duties as a quarantine tank are over and all occupants (apart from a number of bristle worms) have been moved on to the new 75 gallon.

In the longer term when I have some or a lot of other projects out of the way, I'm going to drill it and add a sump. I'm probably going to build it a new stand more along the lines of the one for the 75. The plan is to build another light so that I can keep an anaenome and a pair of clowns in there as a display on the main floor since the big one is in the basement. I have an idea for a really cool light that involves the Wife's old wok, but she doesn't know this yet..
