OK, so I am not sure if this is really I'm the right section so if not please move.
I have a 5GAL carboy I got from my grandfather and have aspirations to turn it into a tank. I was wondering if anyone had the tools within surrey area to be able to cut one. I want to make the opening bigger by cutting about 6" down from the top of the neck. I saw someone who cut a carboy and put fish in it in a pond but no information on how they went about it.
Also briefly read something about adding your own spigots. I have access to one, it's just a matter of if it can be done safely. Would make water changes much easier.
I will only be stocking 3 cherry shrimp and a guppy. It will be filtered with a sponge filter. I also want to try and plant it as dense as possible.
Working on a light source idea. Anyone with any thought on how I could go about this do let me kmow!
I was reading about the acetone and string cutting, but I do not know if the carboy would be too thick. I can't find a whole lot of information with this..
Kind of off topic on the DIY front, but could I also throw in daphinia?
