Where did you buy the wood was it relatively cheap?

Oh its fine I like to collaborate on this stuff! Thanks for the list I think I might sit down with my wife tonight and pick out some that we both like!

Well I looked up kyrlon fusion, and I found their safety sheet: http://www.setonresourcecenter.com/msdshazcom/htdocs//MSDS/Retail/K/KRYLON%20PLASTIC%20FUSION%20AEROSOL%20-%20GLOSS%20BLACK%202321.pdf Under water soluble it says N/A. That's not really good or bad.. It means they don't want to say...

Eventually the sealant would wear off unless it was rated for underwater usage. You can soak regular cement for 3-4 months to "cure" it, but do you want to wait that long.. The sika cement will cure within 48 hours and it's drinking water safe. They might have something similar in a different...

After doing more research I've discovered that quickrite can leech right into the water, and will continue to do so for quite a long time. Instead of you need find concrete for portable water or concrete that conforms to ECA/USPHS standards, or USDA approved for food industry. It can be used for...

Started a journal over here:   http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?/topic/431128-starting-my-own-paludarium-image-heavy/

Hi,   I'm starting a Paludarium in my 33 gallon tank. Here's some pictures of what I have so far:   It's kinda beat up around the outside. I might try to repaint it! My cat Saul is wondering where the fish are for him to try and eat. Just another picture of him. lol  My other cat hobbes...

I found some tutorials on how to cut and bend the plexiglass incase anyone is interested:   Bending plexiglass: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkpqfcg1W_o   Cutting plexiglass: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCeHx-vvJ7k

Yeah once I figure out exactly how many gallons I have to work with I can better figure out what kind of fish I can keep inside of it. I've been doing more research and I think a sump might be the best thing to use for a palladium instead of rigging my HOB filter to work with low water. I'm...

I missed that link! Very interesting read!   I read that it's usually 1-2 gallon per inch of fish. I guess it would depend on how many you have, but I think I can increase the amount of water inside the tank, if I had a bit more money saved I would buy a new bigger tank.   I'm not sure, I looked...

Hi,   After owning/raising some african cichlids for a year I don't consider myself to be an amateur hobbyist anymore, and I like to think I've reached a intermediate stage, but I am new to paludarium's which is the main discussion on this page.. If this isn't the right place to post this just...

Thanks a bunch Eric!

Hi,   I've just recently moved and before the move I had a 33 gallon tank setup to support some african cichlids. One of my cichlids even had a baby that grew up to adulthood(The rest got eaten..)! Since I was moving I ended up giving them to a friend who breeds them. I now want more of a...
