Even if it was caused by twist it could only happen if the silicone was not cured 100% or was too thin. Better it happened now than when it had all settled in anyway so something to be be kind of happy about ( if that is possible ).

One thing, I presume the tank was 100% level when full and not happening to have any reason for excess pressure on the side that got the problem?

Not from aquarium experience but silicone overall mate, I must of done thousands of meters of the stuff lol Although never on an aquarium other than baffles in a sump, that is just what it seems to be. Cracks like that can only be caused by one of the two ( or both together ) things I said as...

Really sorry to see that mate, I think it is either the silicone bond is too thin or it was not cured enough. Possibly a combination of the two, I would defo strip it now just in case it does give as that would be even more gutting than just stripping it.

I think there should be a pic of you in the tank mate to show its size lol

Looking really good mate, great job on the light unit!

lol why?

How about just using a JBL substrate heater cable instead of the mat under the tank, sure it would have the same effect.........

A school of micro Rasboras :)

Great looking stand but would defo benefit from lap joints :)

This thread is more like a masterclass in scaping lol

What filtration are you planning on using?

I am in love with that scape lol And now you mention manzi..........Cant wait!!! With the other angles showing the depth you can really see the potential for plants, once planted with the right things it will really show up the depth of the tank. I have seen some really small nano's that...

14 for me too.

That is brilliant mate!! Soooooooo tempted to do one myself..........

Well I for one will defo be using your scapes for inspiration, what you do so seemingly easily would take me weeks of re scaping and I would still not get to one of those you posted pmsl

Never seen scree or any of your other work but 6 is just WOW!!

I like four but for me I would try with the center rock placed in the back right corner leaving the typical path look in the center. 5 is almost there,strange though the rear left and large front right draw my attention.... perhaps both a bit darker than the others? I'm no pro but that is...

The lights look great, have you tried hanging it from anything to get an idea of the coverage of the bulbs? Think I may have to give it a go myself with the gu10's lol

Holy **** how bright are those ultima's lol Perfect for a marine tank George :)

Sounds like the right idea not having optiwhite then lol, get some pics up of your light unit and cabinet :)

Cant wait mate, your last one was amazing!! I would love a tank that size and have thought about it but it would have to be placed at the top end of the room with enough space to walk around it and would take up quarter of the room lol It will be good to see his recent work silicone wise :) may...

Look forward to this, where did you get it made mate, poseidons by any chance? Have you made the light unit yet?

Re: 120 x 55 x 55cm planted... Home alone Basically yes, Mark I am even more disgustingly jealous now I know this is a room temp tank lol

Re: 120 x 55 x 55cm planted... Home alone Disgustingly jealous of this tank lol, do you mean it is run at room temp without any added heat?

Wow! Just read through this, amazing tank mate and those bits of wood :jawdrop I had a 8x2x18 so have an idea of how big this is but it has to been seen to get the full impact!! Well done with this monster!!

Re: 120 x 55 x 55cm planted... a bit of blue! Are you putting on any extra lights over the tank when you take the pics? It has to be in the top 5 of all clear tanks I have ever seen lol There is only so clear a tank can be and you have certainly hit that level!! I can only hope mine will be...

Re: 120 x 55 x 55cm planted with pics @ 5 days Love your tank and your photography makes my drool lol I may of missed it in the thread but how do you keep the water so clear?

Re: 120 x 55 x 55cm planted with pics @ 5 days Neon blue dwarf rainbows ( Melanotaenia praecox ) These ones?
