500 Gallon Plywood Aquarium Is Finished! But Was It Worth It?

Описание к видео 500 Gallon Plywood Aquarium Is Finished! But Was It Worth It?

The new 500 gallon DIY plywood aquarium is complete! In the video, I finish some exterior work, fix the leak, work on the plumbing and more! I am so excited to finally have this tank ready for fish. Also in today's video, I talk about the cost to build a tank like this, and itemize the full aquarium build in case you're looking to do something similar.

This is my first time building a plywood aquarium, and I'm bound to make small mistakes along the way. If you're looking for a true "how to" video, I'd look up some of the Fishtubers who have more experience with these builds. I'm confident that this tank will all work out fine, but just wanted to throw out that caveat.
