Sup yall,

like the title says im new here. but im on alot of other aquaria forums as well. mainly reef tanks. but i joined you guys looking for a different type of help. i currently have a 75 gallon tank that i have not started yet. its intended to be a saltwater reef tank. but it got put on hold since i came to tx for school. since i been here i came across an article about plywood tanks and became very infatuated. so i was wondering are there any people here that have built plywood tanks for a reef. i know of some other people that have done it also, but i wanted to ask here to since you guys are the huge tank people. im thinking of doing an 8ft x 3ft x 30 inches tall. so what tips do you have for me or resources i can check out. and also do you guys know of any sites that run good deals on table saws.

thnx in advance,
the new guy

Im kind of in the same boat, Id like to build something 5x2 not sure how tall yet. I like the fiberglass/epoxy/silcone/glass approach myself.
