Tigahboy Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 yeah, so holes came out perfectly (used 1" diamond hole saw bit and then a diamond drum). background was ready. I even pvc cemented all the plumbing and such (forgot to take pics tho). but as I was tightening the bulkheads ...*crack* bummer. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 so bought another 5.5g and decided to try again. but this time I got impatient and was a little careless w/ the drilling. so yeah. ended up cracking the new 5.5g as well. After that I decided that I'd stick to acrylic for now. =) the end. Link to comment
adamjonpeterson Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 That sucks about the crack. What you gonna do now? Link to comment

Dome001 Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 thanks for the info, need to look into buying one of those bits. need to drill a 29 gallon so hopefully wont have any cracking problems. Debating using a holesaw or a dremel on mine. Dome Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 Originally posted by BelowH2O wow, its really started to grow! I thought I was going to be able to salvage my frag (got it eating again) then my stupid green yuma nuked it and it was gone in a day! If you ever have an extra piece lmk. I'll make sure you get a great trade or great price for a polyp or two. for sure. you are the originator, so you got first dibs. taking forever for the tiny polyps to grow into full polyps tho.

LynusAnn Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Tigahboy....I just have to sing your prasises for a moment. I haven't had the time to read all 25 pages on this post, but I have seen so many pictures of your tank here and on RC over time and you have some of the most impressive setups I have ever seen! Absolutely awesome! Link to comment
EtOH_is_good Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 tigah, get those holes away from the edge of the glass tank. read from old wetworx threads that structurally weak and prone to cracking. Link to comment
