, I decided to give it a whirl for this compettition...here is what I've got.


So I decided to empty one of my fw breeding tanks and build it for a dart frog tank. It is drilled and has a canister filter running the pond...lil over kill for an 6 gallon pond but thats what I love about it. Here are some pictures of what it looked like before and what I have done so far. This viv will be powered by HOT5s and hopefully another pump in there for a drip wall, no promises though.

Before, My breeding tank of apistogrammas and L/F bushy nose plecos:



And here is the start of the viv build:


Here I am using a shop vac to empty out the rest of the water so it is dry and ready to silicone the glass to it for the pond.


Here is the glass glued in place:


And the pond is finish/ planted


Tomorrow morning is the background/ false bottom...if times allow I will be finished tomorrow night . Rough cost for this build is only $75 dollars to as I had most of the stuff for it!!!!
