Well its good to see videos like this once in a while to stay normal. The moment i saw duct tape i had all the confidence in your craftsmanship and i'm pretty sure all the experienced hobbyists will agree with that. 😊 Have a few doubts apart from the build, if you could let me know. 1. How many days you let the silicone to cure ? 2. When to add water ? 3. When to add fish ? 4. How often do we need to change water and the volume ? 5. How effective is that filtration (if it is) ? Thank you 😊

Whats the thinking of not puting any silicone between the glass pieces? Is it that the tank was small enought and doesnt need the extra bonded support? Thanks.

@whatthesnell Жыл бұрын

Interesting. I've never heard of anyone not putting a bead of silicone down before attaching the two pieces of glass together. Perhaps the added support helps but I personally wouldn't skip that step (I overbuild everything 😊). Hopefully your tank lasts a very long time. Thanks for the video....

12mm glass is more suitable for aquariums larger then 4 feet and smaller then 8 feet. And yes my aquarium is still running fine. Here is a short video : kzfaq.infoyKOaUPaPy9M?feature=share

60"Lx18"Wx24"H would be about 112gallons US. FWIW, that would call for 1/2" thick glass for the front, back and sides, and 3/4" glass on the bottom panel.

Surprised the tank has stayed together. You have run a seal round the glass but have not glued the glass together with silicone. That tank is a ticking time bomb ready to burst. Duct tape! Really? Holding it together! Anyone planning to build a tank look up some other posts and keep your floor dry!
