How to Build a Biotope Aquarium

In this video we begin the next biotope in the gallery. Start to finish you can follow along to see how this one comes together. Stay till the end and guess what area of the world this represents.

Beautiful! First thing I thought was nice, thick aquarium glass. Then, holy moly, it must weigh a ton! Most DIY aquarium stands have double-braced legs. Can't tell the hardware used to attach the left/right crossbeams, but that would be my only concern for such a huge tank. What I mean is, good luck with your new tank!

Appreciate you watching. Yes, the Aquarium Masters tanks are great. I have three of these double 75 gallon stands that I’ve built. This design is tried and true. I use 2.5” exterior wood screws for all fasteners. Actually, they are very sturdy and minimize the footprint of the stands. I’ve got videos on how I build them. Again, appreciate you watching and your feedback!
