This one works great for my purposes. When I started this tank it was my first planted and first sand bottom. It's more of a learning test for me. Once I move I will be setting up and building much larger tanks this is just a majorly scaled down version of future plans lol.

Beautiful little guy you have there. It's nice to see I'm not only one with fish and other types of animals lol. I keep a pair of Geckos.

I use this one on my little 10gallon. So far it is doing well, this is my first dive into planted but it is so far so good. I'm only keeping a couple Java ferns and some java moss right now but they are doing well...

For everyone looking for the bigger sheets, I'm sorry it's taking so long. I am having a bit of an argument with my vendor in an attempt to get the price down. I believe they are attempting to overcharge me. For smaller pieces which I already have laying around if you could please get me a...

1/4 should be fine for that. I have thicker if you need. I actually have a big piece of I believe 1" that's going to be thrown away. It's rated for bullet resistance. We installed a bunch in a bank and this one piece was made wrong so it's garbage. I also have 3/8 scrap on hand and I'm sure I...

I haven't attempted my own tank yet. I'm hoping to own a home soon. When that happens I will be working on a lot more DIY projects.

When I get back to my shop this afternoon I'll look through what I have. I assume you want 1/4"

Just let me know about the sizes your looking for I'll go through the scrap and get you what you need hopefully we can squeeze it in to a flat rate box :D

Alright I'll try to reach my vendor today but most likely I won't be able to get you a solid price till Monday.

I can get the prices on Monday when our Vendor opens. The cost for shipping is going to be high Acrylic is heavy lol Approximate weight: 1/2" 2.8lbs a square foot 3/4" 4.3lbs a square foot So a 4x8 sheet of 1/2" is around 89.6lbs And a 4x8 sheet of 3/4 is around 137.6lbs

Being a professional glass guy by trade I have an almost endless supply of glass and acrylic. If anyone is interested please let me know. Most glass I deal with is 1/4 inch, every now and then I get 1/2 inch very seldom anything any thicker. I deal with all different thickness' of acrylic. I...

No need to apologize for questions lol. It is a double bright with moonlights. I do think the substrate could be deeper. I wasn't totally sure how much to put in there being my first sand base lol. I actually have some duck weed floating in there from my 37 hex tank. I keep up with and remove...

So I decided to give a sand base with plants a try. I have always been into the aquarium lifestyle and I would love to be able to do some great tanks someday lol. Im currently in an apartment and space is limited but I am a professional glass guy by trade so I hope to build my own tankS very...
