Very nice!! Now you just need to get some water in it! I'm excited to see this move along!
obscurereef said:Haha. Glad you got some life in there. I'd add a bit more color though, the brown and black doesn't attract the eye so much.
obscurereef said:Haha uh oh, hopefully she's not so curious and goes fishing and brings you a gift!
obscurereef said:Build a screen top. I doubt your cat will be able to jump up anyway with the lights hanging, but if you want to get a wrasse and/or a firefish you'll want a top. BRS has a video on a DIY screen top. I bought the screen and spline roller from them and got window frames and spline from Home Depot. Wasn't too hard to make. Need a saw to cut the metal frames though.
obscurereef said:When you said fine, you mean small? I got 1/4"...I doubt even a baby can get through that.
obscurereef said:Yeah it's too small for an eel to get out if you fit it correctly. It's pretty strong too. Just tested it out and put some pressure on it and it's fine, I'm sure it will hold a cat if need be .
obscurereef said:Yeah the kit is pretty expensive. If you're willing to go to a hardware store they'll have the same stuff (except for the netting..couldn't find clear 1/4" netting) for half what BRS is selling it as. It's going to look so new when it's clean and painted black.
