Some of you may have seen my other post where I started a tank and then I ended up tearing it down to build a new one. So I worked a few hours in my basement today and this is what I got done.
The electrical outlet where the hole is in the wall was relocated to the other side of the wall (next room) and filled with insulation.
I used an excessive amount of screws, nails, and Titebond II wood glue. I know it's over kill but I wanted this thing to be heavy duty.
I am not sure if I am going with glass or acrylic yet. The window will be 86"x 30". I would like to have the top of the tank with no bracing going across so it's just glass. Water is only going to cover the glass 25" because I am not filling it up to the top.
