that's very cool. I made a larger tank with square glass, and it holds water well. I did it in a different way, staggered weirdly so that every side piece rests on the bottom. Unfortunately I used Silicone II and so don't currently trust it with fish.

Anyway, very nice. I'd like to see some more info on how exactly you fit the pieces together. I can't quite figure out from the pictures how you arranged them.

:iagree: That would look awesome with some sand and anubias nana petite tied to a little manzanita twig. :laugh: I like the pic where you used the frames to look like a stand & hood.

The sides sit on the bottom pane, but the sides only touch edges to each other. The two inner corners of both panes touch.

very cool :) You should make a mini led hood too.
btw did a bomb hit your room?
When we moved, that was supposed to be the pc/office. But we don't have a desk and the stuff went in and slowly came back out elsewhere. When we look for things, we just move other things off to the side and never put it back, since there really isn't a place for it. The rest of the house is clean though.
