Thank you for taking the time to make this thread!!!! It has brought me hope for the diy I plan to do. Did you buy everything first, or as you went (sorry if you already said, my mind is glossy, as I have been researching diy threads all day). I really like the coating idea you chose, and the pics of child in tank while it was filling, great! I like this whole thread, so informational, I am deff. borrowing some of your plumbing ideas if you dont mind! Again thank you for the time you took to make this thread and the vids and great pics.
I pretty much worked out the plywood and timber requirements and ordered it. I then ordered a couple of times for the coating as I went overboard on the thickness.

So most things I had before I started and if I was short screws etc I went to local hardware store.

Personally I would have gone with aros and rays in that tank, but really good looking, the GG's going great huh?

Absolutely stunning tank and I really like how it all came together. :drool: Definitely an inspiration mate.

Yep the GG's powering on. Don't mind rays not that fussed on aros however. If I could get a nice ray for under $350 AUD, I would consider a ray, not that I think it would suit the current tank layout.

Your kidding aren't you! The cheapest rays around here are motoros and they go for about a grand each! If I end up setting up a breeding trio you can have one for 350 :D

I got a Plastic Plant for the tank. I am thinking of getting another 2 off them. What do you reckon?
Looks good! :) Yeah, a couple more would do nicely... yet I suggest you get the same type but different size though... ;)
