The move is a little complex so it may take a few weeks. Wendell |

![]() Hey Tony,
The Tubs are made by Hagen, they are 50g goldfish tubs. I used 1/4" Glass instead of acrylic to pevent bowing in the face of the tub. I also Left quite of bit of "meat" for the silicon...the glass is almost as big as the whole inside face of that tub. I had to sand the inside face with 60 grit for the silicone,and its strength is only good for pressure directly against the face...just like a glass tank if you twist it at all,she`ll pop! But i made 2 of them over 2 years now with no troubles at all. They are around $75 a peice. HTH,

![]() "Laguna" matata (no worries), Brad 8)
Thanks for the link Sam. I was looking at a tub from a hydroponics place yesterday, which would work OK but was smaller (60l) and had some "rippling" sort of edging in the side so I don't think it was a good candidate for a cutout window. Never thought about pond supply ... DUH ... oh well. ![]() ![]()

![]() Yes, it was a play on words. "Hakuna matata" is Swahili for "no worries" or "no problem." 8) Of course after the Lion King, EVERYbody knows that ....
