24 inches front to back would really give you room for aquascaping.

Do you have a spare bedroom we could just convert into a tank?

Hey Loha, I found the Polane on the S-W website, but they have about 15 different kinds. It's not a 2 part epoxy, but a 2 part polyurethane. Can you take a look at the list and let me know which one you specifically have used in the past?

Thanks!

btw...wow, over 1 ton of weight in this tank! Wowzers! Distrubuted, though, my hunni says it works out to about 1 lb per square inch...that's...uhm, not bad.

I have my reasons, Julie. There was a thread about the subject, but it has been deleted.

I came on today just to give some contact info. I really enjoy chatting with a good number of people from this site. If any of you would like to reach me in the future, my email address is kixxin@hotmail.com

Take care, guys
