great! and how does the rubber feels when you touch it? is it spoungy or soft or is it hard like plastic? in other words, is it more like a hockey puck or a Gumby? haha

great question. It didnt change in texture or feel once submerged that i can tell, which is a good sign. I wouldnt say it is spongy, but its not hard like a plastic either. Between the two, i would say it is closer to a hockey puck, with some give. like silicone, but slightly harder.
Fish are in.
Im was confident the tank was ready to go. since i already have a cycled FX5 on hand and all other equipment, i put the fish in. I still have to work out filtration, since i didnt drill the tank yet, but i have time for that.
Equipment so far as follows:
1 Fluval FX5 for filtration
two Fluval E300 heaters(new type)
2 Maxijet Powerheads
a 24 watt UV sterilizer
48inch T5HO powerglo light strip
4 sets of led moon lights
airator
The tank was built for the bigger ray. I just bought the smaller male motoro ray today for her.
I have their old tank running in case i made a mistake in adding them too soon, but i doubt i'll need it.
I am still working out decor and finnishing up small stuff to the tank/stand.
