I ordered the 2 gal. bucket and only used about a gallon. They don't carry the 2g buckets anymore. A gallon ships for $30 priority.
Cool. Thanks for the info. Did you use the UG (Universal Grade) or IG (Industrial Grade).
I may think of building 1 in the future for my monster fishes.
Finally downloaded the MFK android app...lol!!!

I used the IG their UG version just recently became available w/c is good because its thicker. Good to hear you're planning to build one...nothing beats DIY imo. MFK android app makes life easier.

Commenting so I can come back to this one day. Beautiful tank. This is still rocket science to me.... My boyfriend and I are noobs to the DIY world of tanks. We are currently building a SUMP and we hope to build a plywood tank one day. Percent wise, how much cheaper would you say it was than buying everything the old fashioned way?
Your tank build is on the official page of Rubberize It!!! Lol!!!

Maybe they can sponsor you next build.......
The reinforcement cloth may also be a great idea to use on bigger builds in the corners and seams for added sealing. If they had additional colors like blue would have been even better. Let me find a ideal glass for the viewing window then build the tank around that. Lol!!!

Thanks. Percent wise, over here I would say you'll save 50% on builds starting around 200-300g because a 220g AGA sells for $1100 and that's for the tank only. Might be double for the complete set. 30g-$109, 55g-$189 with lights and lids only you get the picture. Very seldom we see used tanks in the ads and if there is one, it's still pricey.
Thank you.
Thanks for plugging it in...
and yes the reinforcement cloth is a great idea. Get the glass now and let me know asap! Lol.The legs are 2x8s and the supporting braces are the same dims ripped in half. Its 24" high.
Thank you sir.good job on your build
