I am going to be building a 500-700g plywood tank next spring, and I am trying to get a game plan together for how to go about planning it. I guess I don't really know the best way to prep. Any tips?
What I do know:
I will be using Pond Liner over plywood, so that if need be I can take this tank apart, in case of a move (since it won't fit through the door).
It will be shaped like a fat L, one arm approx 78"x36" and the other arm approx 60"x24" - depending on how tall I may it (suggestions?) it will be between 500-750g
I would like to have the glass side be multiple smaller glass panels, to reduce the cost of giant piece of glass. Is this feasible? This is my main area I am unsure about the best way to plan, and what it means for how thick the glass needs to be.
Also, the basement floor it is on slopes to a drain near by, what is the best way to build it levelly?
Thanks
