amazing why was did the guy get rid of it for $1 was it bc it had to be broke down or did he just want to het rid of it

The tank had to be resealed because of micro bubbles in the front right seam.

i thought that tanks set the glass pains on top of the bottom pain?
(i know a lot of different manufacturers do it different..)
but if thats the way it was taken apart, Thats the way i would put it back together!!

also, i didnt remember if i saw if it had bottom bracing? ( i would do it because it wont cost much more, and it will double the bonding surface and give you more security.....


Looks good by the way!!

Amazing set up. From where you got the glass holders?

 

[dahenley]

what silicone are you using???
is that "Aqueon" silicone? looks like it, and i was wondering how you liked it and what your opinion is about it.
thanks

Looking good Richie, can't wait to see it

 

[gman107]

can i ask what process you used to remove all the old silicone and make sure you had the surfaces properly prepared?

 

[gofor100]

Nice build... what are the dimensions on this beast?

 

[mapleredta]

Man, you're brave. I'd want that thing leak tested first. Best of luck to you!
