Justin Derange - 8 years ago

how long should you wait for the glue to cure before you add water in the aquarium

myreefblog Marco - 8 years ago

wow - your aquascape - ROCK!:) I'm impressed:)

daveblazer - 8 years ago

for that accelerator your suppose to spray it AFTER sticking peaces together or spray it to the peace you didn't put glue on so it causes an instant lock

Powerslayer - 8 years ago

Just goes to show, one of the hardest things to do in the aquarium world is fund it. With time and effort, anything can look really sweet! Love the scape dude

Mofros Reef - 8 years ago

Wow, very impressive!! Sweetest looking aquascape I've ever seen. Next time I'm in Cali, I'll make it a must to stop by Vivid..

Are those 8' sheets of acrylic, if so how thick is it ?
What can you expect to be the total weight of this tank once it's filled ?

T Surro - 8 years ago

Really nice look!!

Fabrizio Bortoletto - 8 years ago

For sure I missed but why the system has being turned down?

Just to change things up. We wanted to try synthetic rock.

James Lance - 8 years ago

The Punisher - 8 years ago

+Vivid Aquariums oh okay i didnt notice.

Vivid Aquariums - 8 years ago

We put sand in before we filled with water. That's why it was so cloudy at the end.

J Carey - 8 years ago

JJ Nav AND VROS - 8 years ago

+Vivid Aquariums it is!

Vivid Aquariums - 8 years ago

We bought the song from a royalty free music site awhile ago, but now can't find the name of it. It is quite catchy:)

Kyle Durrant - 8 years ago

simply stunning. Well worth the time you guys put into this. Cant wait to see it filled with corals!

texmsmrfc - 8 years ago

Great video. Will you have a video showing specifics about the floating shelf? You briefly went over it, which was awesome. A longer video focusing just on the shelf would be great.

Vivid Aquariums - 8 years ago

Unfortunately, we didn't think of doing that so we didn't get any video footage of acrylic shelf being put together. We could post the few pictures we took in Facebook though.
