DIY AIO 5gallon nano

Thanks for the input I will make future ones with a lower return outlet.

But I found an extra hydor flow generator that works beautifully with the setup. No splashing or micro bubbles..

If it gets more traction I could make a media rack/insert for it also

How think is the Acrylic?

It is 1/4in acrylic(.220)

The translucent bottom is a nice look IMO
it’s the protective plastic that is on the bottom, I didn’t bother peeling it off since it somewhat protects it

This whole thing looks great!
Thank you

These look great got me thinking
Thank you I’m working on media rack/inserts for them

I’m in the process of making the fuge insert
(So it blocks out the light on the side) I haven’t decided on it yet cause you might want to add another light to the side of the tank as well as the back for more growth. (Your tank not mine)

Well the 11g is full of water. If these become more popular I’m going to have to have them burst/pressure tested per lot number

It’s on day 5 no leaks the sides have a slight bow to them but it’s normal for a rimless tank.

Well I was bored again at work( I have to finish the lids)

Nice!!!!! Wow this could really save me some space
 
Having the bottom sheet frosted?
Yea I can I was just using what was lying around. I will keep an eye out though, I’m kind of tempted on using mirror acrylic as a bottom.
