The work starts here. 20ft tank!!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Sure is an eye sore to all that classy work u did so far lol...but i dont think itell hurt anything. I take it thats all the scrap you have left? Imo u dont really need it if the pieces dont reach across the whole span of the top.

After a second look... use the rod pieces on top like u have (only the 4 that reach the full span) then the two larger pieces u have that dont make it across, put those underneath the top lip centered between the two lips instead of staggared and u should b good to go.

Yep this is most my scrap I still have a good bit of the rods left... I glued those two staggered pieces together and then butt jointed it with 1/2" piece. I wanted it there in the center because the top bowed in so badly right there that it was almost touching the water line... I didn't think putting them underneath the top that would have worked too
 
wow the bowing on the tank is amazing! I would not put that in my house! But then again I know next to nothing about acrylic and tank building;)

Cant wait to see if filled up! But take your time lol

Lol time is not an option... That's now how I do things and never have. The bowing is bad but I've seen tanks that were worse and haven't had any issues this is why I spent all the time making sure all the joints were strong
