spent today finishing up the styrofoam and then started siliconing it all together. I ran out of silicone with 4 pieces left so in the picture the top 4 pieces are just sitting there for photo purpose. Have to finish up the siliconing tomorrow then figure out how i'm going to install my net pots into the background. Not sure if i'm going to try and carve out holes for the pots or get some great stuff and foam them to the background.

Anyone ever covered GS with grout? How well does it adhere to it? Hopefully i can get all the pots done tomorrow and let everything cure up for a bit and start grouting the background Tuesday.









I'm going to have to trim down the back side as its just a hair too long to fit the whole background inside the tank as a whole unit which is going to leave a portion on the right side of the tank where the backwall has nothing on it so what I think i'm going to do is maybe paint the back of the tank black, or i'm going to get some of that black ground paper at the fish store and attach that to the back and left side of the tank, leaving the only viewable portions of the tank being from the front and right side, but you wont really be able to stand on the sides of the tank to look anyway because the tank is going inside a recessed portion of a wall (was a small closet in my office room and tank fits perfectly inside it.
