I have a 35 gallon hexagon tank that I would like to make into a riparium. What do I need to know? I will be searching it on the web, but any help from you guys would be great.

A hex might be kind of an awkward shape, although the 35-gallon would have plenty of room. Do you have any other tanks that you might be able to use?

I have a 65 gallon high, but it leaks.

Where does the 65 leak? You will only need to fill it to about 1/3 full.
Well it is in part just my personal preference, but it is just more difficult to make a very natural-looking scape in a hex because of those extra seems. It would have plenty of room for the plants to grow though. I'm sure it would work well enough.

I think the leak is at the bottom

Maybe I can try and fix it again.
