I just purchased a 200 gallon old oceanic aquarium yesterday and it needs new trim. after calling around, I have discovered that because the oceanic line was discontinued, I was either going to be out a couple hundred dollars for a custom trim to be built, or to possibly to make the trim myself. I have tried looking around for other DIY projects like this, but I can't find anything. if anyone could point me in the right direction, or give me some advise, I would greatly appreciate it!
DIY 200 Gallon Glass aquarium trim?
- Thread starter manafel
- Start date
My big concern are the chips in the corner of the tank, so I would think added support would be ideal. I have not water tested this tank yet, but the chips don't look like they would leak. Just provide a big weak spot.
I have a friend who welds for a living and loves doing it, I'm going to ask him of he can make me a metal frame for the tank with vertical trim and. Few bottom support braces.
