Putting tile in a bow front tank! Help!

[acgordon]

So I got this 55 gallon bow front tank for practically nothing. I tried those carpet lining things that Pet Smart sells but it's not working out so great. I love the way the slate tile looks in everyones vivs and my guys nail are sharp so I would love them. Is it just as easy to cut an arc in slate as it would be to cut a straight line? Is there a Dremel attachment I can do this with because I pretty sure Lowes isn't going to help with that custom of a job. Thanks!

Its going to be kinda hard to get the angle but you could do it.

Alright well I got it to work! I used 12x12 tiles and used a skill saw with a diamond blade to cut out the angles. I made paper templates and then taped them on to the slate (don't put tape on where your cuts will be, while the blade can cut through slate it is not so good with tape). It was tricky, but I got it! I used a carbide blade with my jigsaw to clean up any mistakes. Then I took the carbide blade out of the saw and used it to file the edges down. It looks pretty good, but Roran is not so sure about the slate. He has been sitting in his food dish for the past 20 minutes, he will come around. I hope
