His firsrt tank It should be low tech and low maintance aquarium with some simple hardscape, guppies, platies or so, anubias, crypts... You know, some kind of introductory tank.Tank is 61 cm long, 25 cm wide and 40 cm tall. Water surface is on 29 cm. Light is one 14 W 6500 K T5 bulb.I will not bother you with well-known method of making glass tank. Few pics: Li@m 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Why'd you make 3 sides taller than the fourth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diyer Posted March 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Rear side is 10 cm lower because of hang-on or external glass filter with overflow. We are going to start it with sponge filter, but who knows.Another reason is the possible overheating. Cfl bulb is an option. The light shines on the wall behind but it could be fixed with piece of plastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
