Dear King of DIY. What is the best silicone I can use for glass aquarium?
Good job on this video😊👍
What should be the thickness of glass for 1000 Gallon tank?
Hey joe I would like to purchase a office tank like that one from you ? Is that possible please let me know. Thanks
i am from Nepal and i am a huge fan of u n love the way u describe everything in simple words
Joey how do you remove weld-on on the inside of the tank? There are still some leftovers there.
I hate acrylic I’m so bad at scratching and polishing it I made mine out of glass
Don't bore with the excessive details. Just show us the good stuff.
A friend of mine is giving me his acrylic tank but he said it has some scuffs on it don’t really know what that means I haven’t seen it yet but is there a way to remove any scuffs or scratches
Where did you get the 3/4" acrylic from
Where did you buy the acrylic from?
Also in Canada, where do you get the acrylic sheets
Where is this tank now? I love love love it!
Triangular prisim/ pillar tank would be really cool to see some time ^^
Still my favorite series you have ever made. But then again I am a huge Shelly enthusiasts
My all glass Marineland 220 gallon aquarium has to be rebuilt the only problem is the bottom glass is free floating. Only the bottom glass seems to be held by silicone floating 3/4 of an inch from the stand surface. I haven't found a video showing or explaining the importance of this free floating method. My Frontosas are depending on me thanks!
Fantastic vid. Have been thinking of Acrylic recently so well timed.
first of all you talk to much so just build the tank and put water in it and then you get in it and stay there,… Dam. man shut up please
Nice

Thank you
YOU ARE THE BEST! IM GLAD I FOUND THIS PAGE
how often do you do a water change? great video btw
Less talking, and more showing us how to DIY.
Man you're so talkative… talk less work more…
im thinking of making an aquarium but i have 1 question what thickness of acrylic would i need for a 70 gallon tank
thats not the actual amount the tank will hold i just want to play it safe because the build holds a little more than 65 gallons and i would like it too be as strong as it can be without over killing it and wasting a ton of money
i found acrylate , 100×50, 4 mm
i can build a tank 100x50x50?
thanks you so much
I want to build a 96x24x24 acrylic 3/4 thick aquarium do i need to do the pin method? With routed edges
where do i buy acrylic in the states?
Hello. Two years, the best the channel which I saw, thank you for it is signed on your canal. At me появиля material acryle (орг glass) 10 mm wide, I want to make an aquarium the sizes length, a shinina (depth), height (height is possible less if there isn't enough thickness a stele of 10 mm) 148-80-60. Question: whether it is possible to make such aquarium of 10 mm, and than it is better to stick together it, we have in Russia no information about gluing together of such aquariums and such glue by which you koyeit if it is possible please the link where to buy this glue. For I thank you for the answer earlier. You very much will help me.
As flame is this skil tool that you use to handle the acrylic. tanks.
How much is a sheet of acrylic ??
Joey, I'm a huge fan of all your work and love your channel. When you talk about how you want clean, crystal clear edges during the polishing portion, what about those edges that actually butt up against other pieces of acrylic? For example, the side edges of the side panels? Do you polish those 3/4" edges so that they are clear when viewed THROUGH the completed front and back panels? Thanks for the incredible info!
Awesome builds and great info Joey! One quick question: I live in a city that chlorinates our water. How would you choose to condition your water before a water change after plumbing was added into the tank to help facilitate faster water changes? Tired of carrying buckets lol.
im thinking of making something just like this but 43 gallon soo should i get a sump? drip sytem? both? and what fish i was thinking fancy goldfish but i would only be able to get like 3 i want a active tank with like 7 fish (i only can make a 43 gallon)
btw idk much about fish
Joe all the editing cuts make this exhausting to watch, love your channel though!
