90-gallon getting back into the hobby tank...

[griss]

Does 100lbs of rock in a Rubbermaid trash can with a powerhead count as a fish tank?

I believe it does

Fine woodworking community of America:
"You have a lot of options when building fine furniture."
"Oak, Mahogany, Maple, Ash, Walnut, Poplar, Birch, Teak, Cherry are all excellent choices."

Me from the back of the room:
"How about rough pine from the lumber store?"

Fine woodworking community of America:
"Ah... Yes, I suppose you can use that if needed."
"The good news is that although probably not the best choice for furniture grade wood, pine can be stained very nicely."
"Popular stain colors include versatile, warm browns like Walnut, Early American, and Chestnut, along with modern, rustic tones such as weathered gray and espresso."
"These stains will bring out the natural wood grain and be warm and inviting to look at."

Me from farther back of the room:
"How about just painting it flat black, coat after coat, until it looks like particle board from IKEA?"

Fine woodworking community of America:
"Who let this guy in here?"
"Security!"

I love DC pumps! So far, after being out of the hobby for ten years, I think this is by far the biggest advancement. My led light fan is the noisiest part of the tank, and it is pretty quiet!
