cheers for your reply to my WTB

I am after a 4 x 2 x 2 tank as i am trying to set up a marine reef. I dont want a 6 x 2 x 2 as i no how much work they are (i ahve a 6 x 2 x 2 planted discus tank at the moment) and i am not aloud another 6 x 2 x 2 tank.
Thats why i have to get a 4 x 2 x 2 LOL
if you no anyone that has one i would be interested LOL
cheers and have a great week and an even better weekend

clear float 6 mm glass is about $30/sq m and 10 mm about $55, browse around. you could do it for about $140 in 10mm glass(could be more or less you have to look around for cheaper glass). Try find a small glass shop most of them will cut the glass for you, there are plenty of contact numbers stuck on shop windows, yellow pages etc. http://www.austinglass.com.au/aquariums.html has the tutorial. get your measurements right, take them to the glass shop, they will have some silicone sealant, buy duct tape, and find a flat surface. as long as you do not underestimate the weight of water and follow the instructions right, you should have a good tank for a third or even a quarter of the price. i would recommend the 10mm glass for 4 x 2. hope i haven't got you all confused.
cheers
