What size tanks are you keeping them in? Pics would make my day!! I'm wondering what would be better for housing Silvers, a tank that is 72x36 or 96x30?? I also thought about building a DIY tank with plywood and making it 4'x8', when I got my 180 it looked so big, now it looks little.

I have to admit that i didnt make that tank.....although it wouldnt be hard. After looking at the tank you can easily see how it was built....and i have to say that its simple. really really basic tools are all you would need. Sometime i'll get some really closeup pix of the construction and post them. feel free to PM me if you want to talk about it.
