I'm almost ready to work of the substructure. I bought laminate for that and was looking how i want it to look when it is finished.
I think the best way to do it is as in the picture.

I am taking notes! I really like this size/shape tank. Though I would love to build bigger, this is probably a realistic size for my first DIY as well.
Will have to have a look at your other one now as well.
Cheers!

I don't know yet how i want to make the filter cause there are several options.
On the pictures you can see an example of how i could make it.
The filter excists of a relatively small before filter and a room for the pump, than the water will be spraid into the dry filter. The whole dry

filter is filled with bio balls and substrate.
I could of course also choose for a somewhat more confessional preparation with for example a large wet biologist.
Feel free to give your opinion ...

How about a removable and replaceable sheet of filter floss, you'd be surprised about how much this stuff takes out?
