I have drawn up a template for my Solar panels that once in place should provide all the power i need for my fish tank. There is a local steel stockholders who can make up my frame for my panels. As soon as i am able to get over to the Steel place i can have them make the frame up for me.
I have found a supplier for my Epoxy resin in the UK priced at £17.99 a kilo this price i found the best on offer. After calling the company i had needed 4 kilo to complete the inside of the tank. Now i am told they have a cancelled order in the colour i want and at £50 for 5kilo. By getting this extra kilo i can complete another job i am planning to do.
I am only now looking to carry on with my fish tank. Near to me there is a stream that at this time of year has run dry and the bottom of the stream it is covered in very small flat stones ideal for a fish tank.
I have collected many stones like these for my tank. All the stones i have collected need to be treated in Chlorine to sterilise them and then i can use them safely.
These are large stones from a wall near my house that was taken down during the renovation of a house. The old type of building in these villages was with stones and Mud. The mud was used because when it dries in the baking sun it forms solid walls. The house close to me has been dated to about the mid 1800's so the poor villages coudn't afford cement for building.
All i have to do now is clean the stones ready to put in my tank.
