Frag tank build 30x30x12 45 gallons FINISHED FINALLY

[DEWreefing]

GRRRR do not buy bulkheads for cheap on Amazon. My drain bulkhead snapped the heads and stripped the threads. Bought a schedule 80 bulkhead, fixed the weir so the tank will be 1 inch from rim. 1/4 scared me before. Need to wait 2 days for siliconed weir to cure.

Very nice. How much did all of the glass and materials for assembly run if you dont mind? I love building things myself and am now inspired to build my own tank.
