How To Make Fish Tank At Home | DIY | The Indian FishKeeper

This video show how I build an aquarium at home. Starting from glass dimensions to adding live stock, this video covers it all. This tank now has 40 + African cichlids - electric yellow labs. Watch it to build your own. Buy silicone here http://amzn.to/2z9uR6t (affiliate) I have used Fevicryl Acrylic Colour. You can buy it here http://amzn.to/2BON2Nt Note: Complete your tank's nitrogen cycle everytime you set up a new one. In this tank I have used filter media, water and sand from an established tank.

yeh apke fish tank size and fish ke upar kafi depend karta hai. but generally 2 feet tank keliye 600 to 880 Liters per Hour flow rate wala filter is enough.

Rengarajan Kannan
Rengarajan Kannan - 7 years ago
Nice video. I have a doubt - In few other videos i see the glasses pasted to the side of the bottom glass but you are pasting it over the bottom glass. Which method is the best?
The Indian Fishkeeper
The Indian Fishkeeper - 7 years ago
Rengarajan Kannan nice question. According to me, this method is easier. As side panel comes above the bottom glass, the tank bottom will always be flat. If side panel is pasted on the sides and if not cut in straight line then it might create unnecessary pressure points.

But if I had bought the glass them approx cost would have been around ₹1200 for 8mm .
The Indian Fishkeeper
The Indian Fishkeeper - 7 years ago
I have reused the glass by taking apart another tank. So it's free. I bought silicone tube for ₹200. Dimensions are 3 length x 1 hight x 1 width.

Sir how it cost for your size glass and why you make a little space separate for filter Plex tell me
The Indian Fishkeeper
The Indian Fishkeeper - 7 years ago
I bought the glass for INR 700. Price of the glass will vary place to place. i would suggest to buy it from fish wholesale market. the little space is for internal sump filter. its a sump but inside the tank. check out this playlist for more info on sump and filter https://goo.gl/ooJcfg

Hey awesome video !! Understood A and B. Whats C Width 2x glass thickness means and height-glass thickness?? didn't understand.
The Indian Fishkeeper
The Indian Fishkeeper - 7 years ago
RohanJ C=tank width minus two times glass thickness . For example, if u want 1 ft width tank and glass thickness is 6mm. Then the "C" side of the glass should be 1ft-12mm which equals to 0.96 ft or 11.52inches. hope it clears your understanding

wat paint did u used.....?
The Indian Fishkeeper
The Indian Fishkeeper - 7 years ago
yes you can. apply from outside and make sure fishes are not there in tank when you are applying it. it's smell while curing might be dangerous to fishes. best bet is to use acrylic colors. they are cheap too.

what about the lid and braces on the bottom?
The Indian Fishkeeper

Wallytukan https://youtu.be/ZYQgEvmPNUw
watch this video for a diy of quick functional lid.
The Indian Fishkeeper
The Indian Fishkeeper - 7 years ago
Wallytukan bracing is not required for the tank of these dimensions. ie. 3x1x1 feet. However, bracing is required for tank whose length is more than 3 feet and height is more than 1 feet. by the way, this is a very good question thay you have asked.
