Has anyone here built a tank using wood and fiberglass.
Before we left the big easy a LFS had built a very nice lagoon prop tank using a wood frame that was coated with fiber glass.
I am wondering how that type of construction compares cost wise with acrylic.
Looks like I could build a 6 by 1.5 by 10 inch high tank from acrylic for under 250 for all materials. Since this is not a display tank and looks are not that important I am just curious if I would do better to go this route.
