Great looking tank! love the aquascape

 

[albano]

Looks great, you're VERY trusting to allow others to aquascape for you! but, they did a great job...I'm guessing that you placed it away from the wall, so as to have rear access?

Looks really sweet, I'm going to be moving stuff from a 180 to a similar foot print tank (just not as tall), and having moved tanks a few times before I can say ... I hope you fed everyone who helped you well

That said, how long did you let the silicone cure? Looked like it was 1 week between finishing the silicone and filling it with water, hopefully that doesn't come back to bite you in the butt.

I hope you all wore mask during the silicon process. I smelled my fingers after fixing my sump and almost passed out. Great Build.:beer:

Sorry guys haven't updated in a while, yes I am in the process of skinning the tank.

No The builder didn't neither did I, but you are right that smell was so strong it didn't air out for a couple of days.
