Hi , excellent

[@ReefAmorous]

Thank you

[@bestgames8047]

Nice!

[@angrygrim1394]

you was going into great detail till the end when you was adding the sides.... wish you would show it step by step for that as well.

[@jessejpeterson]

love the video and agree with the above

[@FNBBN150]

Absolutely! Great video. Had to watch some parts a few times to realize he put black silicone on the edges.

[@cromaticoagency3177]

The best video to built a aquarium. BRAVO!!

[@honeymoon4130]

Hello to your sweet daughter! Great job on the tank. I will be saving this for future reference for our tank build.

[@ReefAmorous]

+Makeup Addict Hello to you, I am glad to hear that, thanks for watching :)

[@ducatirottie]

Best i've seen so far using all glass. Great job dude!!!

[@ulsterrich4213]

I have sat from about 9.30am to 18.45pm researching building large fish tank and was about to give up frustrated !!! then found this . Best video on UA-cam, brilliant mate I’ll be following this one ☝️👍

Excellent work sir that inspire me, thank you and big HELLO to the kid.

[@ReefAmorous]

Thank you

[@TheDcraft]

Edit: Hi ☺
Thank you for making this video. I'm building an terrestrial-aquarium that's going to be roughly 2ft wide by 14ft long (with varying height) and this is really going to help.

[@ReefAmorous]

I am happy to see this helps a lot of people, good luck!

[@12345678991573]

Which silicone sealant u used?

[@FriendM2010]

Like the double pane for bottom, no need to euro-brace bottom 👍. Hi to baby girl, Dori and Nemo has new home now 🙂🙂🙂

[@ReefAmorous]

Thank you

[@pixel356]

Vous êtes très professionnel

[@adamcenteno6155]

Absolutely magnificent! I’ve never seen it build like that. I was wondering where did you buy the glass and the side metals?

[@abhip77]

Hi to you daughter... I loved this video.. thank you !

[@ReefAmorous]

Thank you

[@MrFingerz14]

Awesome tank! Would like to build my own 100 gallon one day as the price for store bought ones are ridiculous.

[@natashab5969]

Saba789 try Craigslist I've seen people selling fully functioning 200 gals with niiiice stands for $2-300 simply because they were too big for their house or they moved away from the hobby! I bought a 60 gal for $55 for a hamster three years ago, she passed away a couple weeks back so now I'm setting up a goldfish tank 🤗🤗

[@guiltygrammer]

good job the extra silicone makes the glass walls of the fish tank extra durable and the seems will probably last longer too great job.

[@ReefAmorous]

Very good bottom support. Nice to have such skills from u. I will do that for my tank too, and I will also provide top mid support for that.

[@ReefAmorous]

+Yogesh Sakhare yah, this will be good also, thanks for watching and comments

[@mzbanks629]

Nice job, I wanna build my own one day.

[@ReefAmorous]

Yah, it's always worth to try by yourself
Thanks for watching!

[@ghulammujtaba8446]

Awesome

[@ReefAmorous]

+Ghulam Mujtaba Thank you so much

[@AlibinAbbas-bk8xs]

I've made an aquarium like this but using 19mm extra clear tempered glass but without steel bracings at the bottom rather on the top. It made the tank extremely heavy though but it's worth it.

[@ReefAmorous]

19mm it's normal to be heavy

[@ZacharyMelo]

How much deflection is there in your long panels when the tank is filled? Without eurobracing, I assume this thing is flexing quite a bit.

[@ReefAmorous]

yeah sure, I did this later
Thanks for your comments

[@Edwinorellana2022]

hai good idea i really enjoyed DIY

[@ReefAmorous]

Thank you

[@Threedog1963]

I missed where you put the silicone seal on the sides. Was it prior to setting the sides in the "tunnel" or after? It looked like you may have had the silicone beaded prior to setting them in, hard to tell.

[@ReefAmorous]

Yes exactly prior putting the first side panel

[@prabhakaran599]

nice job

[@ReefAmorous]

Thank you

[@tiaanvanwyk555]

Hey little one your daddy made an awesome tank

[@ReefAmorous]

Thank you

[@AhmedAbdulAzim1]

the second sheet of glass you add to the bottoms its seem you just add more thickness wall to the bottom that means 10mm+10 mm =20 mm for bottom thickness, but there is good way to use ring strips support under the bottom it can be glass or wood or steel doesn't matter for example if you using 4 rings every 30 cm now your bottoms = L1+L2+L3+L4 means every L = 30 cm of length witch can resist pressure 4 time then your design and not this much cost

[@ReefAmorous]

+Ahmed Abdul Azim yes true

[@darrellcollins4104]

Looking to build a 125. I want to use this style, but I want to put braces for two tank lids...suggestions?

[@ReefAmorous]

Yes it will be better, my advice to not make it deep like my tank its hard when you need to do maintenance or cleaning

[@santamonicahelpassistant418]

Excellent job brother! AND NICE TANK! is't still in a good condition to this day?

[@ReefAmorous]

Hi, thanks for asking.
The tank was in good condition till it's shutdown for moving.

[@Threedog1963]

What about the stainless? Where did you get that, and did you cut it yourself? I'm sure the cuts had to be very precise to make everything come together so nicely.

[@ReefAmorous]

You can buy it from any steel shop of manufacture, you can request the needed lengths and cut it by 45 degrees

[@aquafina1287]

Hello Baby girl ... your DAD is awesome ..... and your dad has build a very neat and beautiful aquarium ....

[@ReefAmorous]

Thank you :)

[@camillethionville3418]

Where did you find such big and thick pieces of glass? Did you have them custom cut?

Yes they are custom cut

You are welcome. Thank you

[@PG-sg2oo]

seems like some extra support at the top center would be a little better. I would worry about buldge and boom!

[@johnanderson5616]

With 10mm glass, that wont be an issue for this size tank. No bracing is required

[@dariogheller]

nice I also do the double bottom...a lot stronger

[@Th3mast3r69]

the tank was pleanty strong without the stainless

[@akincb3114]

Hi, where did you get the glass from? Thx

[@ghsh837]

Thank you for this very educational and helpful video but Is this a normal glass or securite (Safety) glass

[@ReefAmorous]

It's temmperd glass

[@ulsterrich4213]

This might sound like a silly question, but was wanting to ask when measuring the glass to build a tank how do you measure the side glass panels.
Wondering do you cut off the glass thickness either edge of the side glass panels , or even more to allow space for silicone??
This is going to be my first attempt to build a fish tank so just wanted to check before ordering glass cut to size online.
Thanks 👍

[@ReefAmorous]

More to allow space for silicone

[@ulsterrich4213]
