On a little side note, I am going to be building a couple of my own ideas soon... I will post a video on youtube, and pics on here... I will start a thread and just keep adding to it, and also whenever anybody makes a vid/deco, they can post the instructions/links in the thread so it is organized....

I'll have to go through and try to find the aquarium safe sealant. I don't want to use the silicone sealant because it will be hard to keep it thin...
Looking forward to seeing your changes.

ask someone who works there, for a sealant that will work if submerged or under extremely high humidity.....

Sweet I'll have to go to lowes and see if I can find what you're talking about. I am very artistic, so I want a pretty tank, however I definitely am going to keep my frogs health in mind before building, I love them dearly.

I emailed the guy and he said he didn't know of a waterproof sealant safe for an aquarium other than silicone... so I'm still looking.
Anybody know anything about concrete sealant?

I don't know if there is one, but you could try to find out if there is a clear two part epoxy paint. Check the thread in Terr-Equipment about the epoxy paints and see if there is any useful info in there for you. It's a sticky.

The only sealent that I'm of that would work underwater is silicone, though the epoxy's might work as well. Also, I'm not sure if you even need to bother sealing it. Reef aquariums use cement for reef structures all the time without using sealent, they want all the little pores in the cement to be homes for bacteria. All you have to do is soak you structure in pure RO water for a couple weeks until the grout/cement stops releasing elements that would effect your water.
