hey. it looks great. Sounds like you make them unless I interpreted it incorrectly. How do you go about doing that with acrylic? What are the dimensions?

They Come Ready Made - They are CD Storage Boxes from the Department Store, I just Seal them to make them watertight - They Come in 2 Sizes the Cube and Rectangle.
I think I will Take out the Rocks and Use Bogwod - Snap some peices of a pre Cured Worm Hole Bogwod i Have, Never looked cramped untill I saw the Pix on here.

Does your lamp always stay that close to the tank? I only ask as I had a similar sized tank for my betta and was using a lamp for light but I noticed that it was heating the water to a ridiculusly high tempreture, think it was around 33-35 degrees!!!

No the Lamp is not always That Close, I had it in Close to give better Light. Normally it is about 6" above the tank. I use the Goosneck Halogens from Homebase.

Yea I use lamps for my betta tanks and it would heat the water but all I had to do was go and get flourescent bulbs and they give off better light and hold a steady temp of the water.
