Here I will be keeping track of the build I cam currently doing for Stewie's new tank. I am going off of the crossfire Viv plans but made a couple mods it it as I pleased.
Tank Dimensions are: 48" x 24" x 24" (This ended up a lot bigger than I thought it was going to be and a lot heavier)
Parts:
For the wood I used Melamine. When I build my next tank I will stay away from this type of wood. It is way to heavy.
I pre-drilled all holes, so there was no cracking or pealing like many people state happen to them.
Tank all put together. (Don't have any pictures from when it was going together)
Sprayed some foam in the enclosure to try to simulate rocks coming out of the background. First try at this. Not sure how i like it. Maybe will look a little better when it is painted. ( The sharpy marker marks in the tank are for where the furniture is going to be going in the viv. I marked it out so the furniture would be able to sit flush to the side of the tank, and not be hitting any foam.)
Here is another picture of the foam rocks.
Picture of me playing with some of the Styrofoam building some structures.
**Will be updated soon**
