My homemade newt tank

[Dcerdeiras]

Just completed my newt tank. I included an underwater "dome" where my California newt, Yoda, can go in and out for air. He's still getting used to it, I'll upload pictures when he's in. For now, he has a floating log. Here are some pictures in attachments (can't seem to post them directly)

I also made a video on youtube on how I built it. Here's the link How to Make an Aquarium with wood - YouTube

Bad news. The tank started to leak. I'm now relocating my newt and fish. Guess I will just stick to pre-made tanks from now on.

Too bad, it was a nice looking tank. Especially the dome.

Yeah. I was really excited about the dome. But it turned out my newt, Yoda, never liked it and one of my fish jumped up into it and died, so I guess its back to the drawing board with that. I just purchased a used 30 gl tank and will be getting back in business soon.
