Give it a few weeks, drain it and check every side etc. If no leaks, then your set. BUT imo I would like to see you test it out on a LARGE tank. Im still iffy about that since the guy built a 150gallon and there was alot more pressure going on.

i could get 1/2 in thick 5x3 sheets for 8$,as many as i want (they arent damaged either!) i dont want to risk 120 gallons (the size i plan my other tank to be) of water and a 5x2x18" 80$ rotted OSB box (lol)

Do you guys think a 1/4 inch piece of acrylic 24x18 braced the crap of, like 20x14 viewing area,will work?i dont care if it bows lol.
Ah,ok thats what i plan to do.Does it take much material off the hardiboard?canufeelme;1768986; said:
hardi board the same as durock(cement board)? If so then you will loose whatever material the grinder takes away. This stuff smells amazing (imo) and I must smell it all the time when I am in home depot or putting it in a bathroom or floor. Cut it as far away from your house as possible and hope the wind doesnt blow into your neighbors house. That dust is NASTY. Wear a mask to.
