My Tank is finally up!!!!

Russ, that is awesome. I did a similar thing with a backdrop idea, except mine was using "great stuff" foam. Unfortunately it started to peel off of the glass within the first week . I think I'm going to try the concrete thing when I start on my 75 gal. The back drop totally adds a cool look to the tank.

Pretty groovy lookin' tank Russ. Well done. I see where all the really sweet frags you guys get end up.

Very nice job Russ. I agree with Chin Lee - one of the nicest I have seen.

Amazing, similar to what I wanted to do with my tank but I was afraid to use Type 10 concrete as I was worried about the silicates. I was trying to find the low alkalinity cement but it doesn't appear anyone has it around here.

I think that's the best looking, coolest, most amazing background, total wow factor and once it colours up...nicely done.

Fresh water, changed three time daily, in a seperate tub that will be wrecked by the time you are done due to high alk. In total it soaks in the water for three to four weeks until it stops raiseing the alk of the water.
