    Low budget bling

    I thought id make the fish a low budget fish bridge. i spent a total of $7.00 on this project. :hammer: and about 30 min. of time, Now just to see who goes through it first.;D

    Just went through every page of this thread, loved it. I really admire your DIY abilities.

    Love the new fish bridge, let us know who takes the plunge first! Is there a constant supply of water in the bridge and if so, how did you pull that off?

    The water in the bridge is free flowing if i shut the return off on one tank, that tank keeps running because the water flows through the bridge keeping everything at the same level.
