Re: Willie's plywood adventure

basile.I hope maybe I can start my rock structure in the next week or so,I don't know if I'll have much done to the tank before you get back home or not,I still have a lot of work to do before my tank comes in the house.....you'll probably be home before that

As much as you are teased it is probably one of the most helpful threads on the site right under the ick treatment threads and the "that tank is too small for 11 tangs" type of threads...haha.

It would surprise me if there was someone here that didnt like it. I mean, I have seen better tanks, but that thing is beautiful. You said you knew the person that built that? If so is there a build thread somewhere around the net so I can read up on that bad mama-jama.

This is amazing. It is giving me lots of ideas, if we ever get the addition to our house done, we are going to do something like this. You are inspiring.

Re: Willie's plywood adventure

Willie, How are you planning on doing your rockwork? I hope you haven't already told us and I missed it. You mentioned you were going to do it across the back and before you moved it inside? What are you using?
