nope chika still gotta buy the glass to build the tank...
Im thinking 10mm glass got the go ahead from a few ppl that its fine, some said 12mm to be abit safer tho. i hope it doesnt cost me more then R2500:whistling:. . .

Thats my limit to spend on glass cos then il have to stick to a gold fish bowl lol.
Wish me luck!:033::clover:
 
too much dust covering the pics...

My 900 x 900 x 600 (12mm) cube cost R2500 but that was for someone to build it and a petshop to add mark up. So I'm sure yours will be cheaper if you buy the glass yourself.
Thats not bad at all, how long ago was this? any idea where that glass was from?
 
Ah, dust has settled.

what is your plans with the sump area?
 
How you want to do the sump? How will you get to it? can you reach from outside? Or will you make a door in the brickwork? Or completely remove all the brickwork?
