Adrienne Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 I really don't understand what you are asking - is it a tank or stand as your heading says tank and the first few words mention stand. Perhaps you might like to try again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dattofish Posted December 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 well frame is built an going to use plywood for the sides and few sheets for the top.. i have a 50mm sheet of polly for the top i was planning on having the tank sit on that then the plywood but flatm8 whos making it says to hav the polly inbetween the plywood sheets? would that give the same affect as for the purpose of the polly their is to keep a bit of heat in? could someone get back to me on this one asap would be good.. tanks in progress of getting built now.

jackp Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 The poly also serves the purpose of nullifying any pressure points due to non-uniformity of the surface that the tank sits on. You should have the poly directly under the tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
