DIY Indoor Stingray Pond (Inexpensive)

Hey Miles, Just wondered if you had any pictures of the tank with lid now?
Also, I was considering the design, if you pushed the height to 2' then do you think that you would need exterior support for the sides, like 2"x2" running up the outside of the legs? Then a pair of 2"x2" cross supports maybe.
Could you even just seal the inside instead of lining it. This would reduce the cost quite a bit, and reduce the chance that a ray could poke through the lining, what do you think?

The ray won't poke through the lining.. especially if you get it extra thick..
All of your ideas could work well in theory though! If you add more height, just add more bracing around the outside and maybe cross bracing over the top..
No pics of the lid.. I gave it away.

Rays are so cool, I think you need to have a huge tank for them though .. and I just don't have that kind of space... untill that one faithfull day that the kids get old enough that I can convert their play room into a tank ;-)
