Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone has any info on making your own acrylic tanks.

I'd love to make a really large one for myself. I'll probably start off small until I get the technique right, then I'll go big.

Is there info out there I can't seem to find to much when it comes to materials etc.

Thanks in advance

Scott

However, if Im correct in assuming this very big tank is connected with your last thread, it is no easy task to make an aquarium that is thousands of gallons, and nearly impossible out of acrylic. Something like a concrete tank with an acrylic viewing panel would be a much better choice.

LOL slipnot,

The 2 aren't related, I don't have that much time on my hands lol.

I would defently use concrete for something like that.

However isn't there some tanks at public Aquariums that have a tunnel going through them. Now thats kewl!!!!!!!!
