Hey everyone,
Thought I'd kick off my new build thread for my pair of Varadero Imitators!
I'm building in a 18x18x24 and will be hooking up a MistKing starter system as well as some moonlights. In terms of materials I'll be using some tree fern panels and will use the GS method to hold together some Malaysian driftwood along the sides to create two "trees" to maximize the vertical space.
I went out and had a hole drilled on the back side of the tank for drainage. Then built my 2 inch ventilation strip across the top of the tank as you can see in the photo below.

Next I used silicon to cover the back and part of the sides of the tank so that the GS expanding foam doesn't show.

I'll be uploading more pics as I continue to build.
