10-Gallon Conversion Kit(s)

[djfergu]

For sure for sure....I feel you on that. I might try to do that, but you said you could do it yourself for cheaper?? What would I need (supply-wise) and how would I accomplish this?
also, would it look as "nice" as the jungle box kit(s)?
another also (haha), do yo think that thier terrestrial glass covers are cool too. If I do decide on a dart that can fit into a terrestrial 10-gallon i would want a product like that but want to ask if its GOOD/works well....if you know. Might even have to drill that for a nozzle too....never know.
i am about to do some stuff around the house but will check bac in a half hour- an hour for a response. Again, I appreciate everything, and i'll talk to you very soon!

you can make your conversion kit look just like the one from junglebox, i did easily and so have many others.

supplies to convert:

fiberglass window screen
window framing
4 corner window screen frame kit

above will make your screen section

then all you need is 2 pieces of glass (lowes will most likely cut them for you if you tell them the dimensions). I'd suggest trying to get a thickness of glass as close to the thickness of the window screen framing material so that it is as flush as possible with each other. 3/8" is what i think junglebox uses on theres. Check the tank rim depth as well to make sure you don't get glass thicker than that depth, you don't want your glass sticking out past the rim.
once piece of glass is the bottom part (think exo terra here, i made mine 5" high) which you silicone to the rim of the tank. Important!!!! MAKE SURE YOU SILICONE THE INSIDE RIM OF THE TANK AS WELL because the factory where it was made most likely didn't because the tank wasn't made to be flipped like you are doing and it will leak water if you don't seal it yourself now that it will be vertical. The 2nd piece of glass is your door. You're going to have to attach it to the tank or bottom glass section somehow. Junglebox using a Living Hinge, what i did was buy an acrylic piano hinge from Joshsfrogs.com along with an acrylic hasp. Siliconed the hinge to the two piece of glass, and the hasp was attached to upper part of the glass and screen to keep the door closed
