My little buddy needs a new tank, and I was thinking of disassembling his aquarium to build a larger tank from whitewood and poplar around it. Is there any reason why I shouldn't do this before I commit? The front would still be glass but the base and walls would be untreated poplar/whitewood.
And as a side note- I have everything planned out already. I'm wondering though how I should route wires, I can't seem to find a sort of seal/gasket/grommet that I can run them through if I drill holes in the side of the tank.
It's white pine, do not use it unless it is sealed and/or painted with a nontoxic paint or sealer. If you do, let it air out for at least a couple of weeks or until the smell is gone.

While I have the topic open, will 66"(L) x 13"(W) x 15"(H) be enough space for a full grown beardie? I'm sure that the length is plenty but wasn't sure about the width or heigh

Length is good but the width and height need to be a bit bigger. Optimum width and height is 24", though you may get by with 18" in height as a minimum.
