Designers Block, need help/ideas

it's true my friend. all will seem well. then all not so well. then hopefully you get it in time. that is usually the case. silicone is for glass, period. it works on other things but not so much on plastics.

Then maybe a different sealing agent? with the way I want my water front, glass is just not feasible, unlike my drawing I'd like to have some variations along the "coast line" and also at a slight slant inward to allow any amphibs or dumb darts to get back on land easily enough.

don't count a misting system out if you're planning on a planted b/g. it'd be nice to be able to aim your watering where you need it and it is really cool to see your tank rain as opposed to constantly spritzing it.

if you're trying to stay on a budget, i understand though.

If you were to create a like a void spot, where you can easily access the pump, would you still need that 3" pipe in the back? Still trying to figure out if I need that pipe or not in the background, seeing how I believe I would have enough space to get in there and clean.
