You'll probably end up doing better than me on price. Mine got shipped to my house and was more than $100 all-in - OUCH!
Emaco ain't easy to get. I had to order it and it was expensive to ship. The Acryl 60 was like $12 for a 1 quart bottle, if I remember correctly.
The sand will get rubbed off (at least some of it will) if you "clean it," but you shouldn't need to. I anticipate that it will get covered in...
I'm using the plate to support PVC pipes that I'll be attaching live rock to. I'll be doing a lot of aquascaping this week in a tub in my garage...
Don't forget to turn off the protein skimmer! That is the major air injection mechanism in the tank.
I also forgot to add that on the final I will be using a jigsaw to curve the front and side of the plate to make it look yet more natural.

Everything can be "controlled." The question is how much work it takes to do so. In my 180 I was literally pulling out about a gallon of Xenia per...
Don't put Xenia Elongata (the brown stuff) in your tank. It is a weed, and a noxious one at that. Under the right conditions it will completely take...
So I forgot my camera when I went out to the cabinet guy's place. All I've got is crappy cell phone pics, but even with them you can see how nice the...
I'm concerned about that as well so what I'm going to do is drill a number of small holes in the plate and put in a bunch of plastic screws to help...
More news... My tank is in! ... but my stand isn't ready yet. I'm heading over to the cabinet place tomorrow to work out light placement and...
