Hey guys,

I'm just not starting the research phase of my final aquarium project. I need some good articles on DIY Filtration. I'd like to do EVERYTHING myself.

My ultimate goal is to create a 400 - 500 Gallon Plywood Tank.

I'm starting my research with filtration, however, do see if it's doable.

I will be creating everything myself from the ground up. Articles and pictures are welcome! This is going to be a loooooooooooooooong project. Help me out!

I have seen videos of that blokes esky-sumped tank, gotta have somewhere to put the Crownies while you are admiring the fish.

I think it turned out really well.

in my line of work, i had built a marine plywood tank... but later on
it is more economical and practical to use stainless steel plate as
tank siding with one side viewing glass.... our design was always collapsible
and can dismantle and re-assemble any time the owner may wish....
