Double Comfirm info before i start my DIY tank

[markado]

Hey MFK

Just want to double comfirm if this website is trustable.
http://www.garf.org/tank/BuildTank.asp
I am interested to make a 6Ft by 2Ft by 3Ft tank using their instructions.
I just want to double confirm and not waste time and money on my DIY project.

Thanks MFK

They are trustable. I used them for my first plywood tank build. Are you planning to make your tank 36" tall or is that the width. Garf says to not exceed 24"tall when the length is over 48" when using just plywood.

it going to be a 6feet long 2 feet tall and a 3 feet wide... i am thinking of doing a 3 feet tall tank. but to play safe am just thinking of following garf for my first build.

If its 2 feet tall, you'll be fine. I used it on my first build too.

three feet deep sounds awesome when designing a big tank but my 36" deep tank is really hard to clean. My recommendation is not to build anything deeper than your arm is long.
