Decadence September 12, 2014 Share September 12, 2014 You'll get the glass cut at a glass shop. It will take two visits to build the tank. The first visit would be when the tank is constructed, then the silicone would cure before the excess is trimmed and the interior seal is put down.

Jose Paz September 12, 2014 Author Share September 12, 2014 Great, about how much I would be expending and when can we start? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decadence September 12, 2014 Share September 12, 2014 You'll spend around $3-400 on the glass most likely and will need to buy aquarium-rated silicone as well. I've used the stuff from BRS before with good results. Your glass is going to be a minimum of 1/2" thick. I'd recommend cutting the height down to 20" for safety factor. I can help you in a couple weekends. We can make a DIY tutorial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
