People with experience in building plywood tanks,
I'm planning on building a plywood tank. It will measure 220 x 60 x 60 cm. That's roughly 7x2x2".
Will 20mm thick plywood suffice for this build?
The glass panel would be 200x50 cm. Would 12mm thick glass give a good safety ratio?
Also, do you guys use regular glass or tempered glass?
Lastly, for the European people. Are there any good alternatives to Pond Armour? It's really hard to find black pond armor that can be shipped to my location. Checked ebay, Amazon etc. Could you use regular epoxy resin? Does it really leach once cured?
My first tank build so I'm thankful for any good advice!
