welcome again to another episode of fish keep in jamaica welcome to my channel okay so today
i showcase the 70 gallon aquarium stand and that was built okay so same thing around but
it's 73.9 gallon right and this aquarium will be placed right right half inch thick glass
it weighs probably about 300 pounds trust me it's very heavy right be going on the top
of that aquarium stuff after around me look it is so heavy right now and that the only
time i'm gonna try to lift it up is when it's gonna be delivered let's go back to the stand
no the stand is made up of cedar board and one of the reasons why it's made up of cedar board
is because um unlike probably where you're at um a lot of areas in jamaica are you know infested
with what you call termites right now termites uh stay away from cedar board right so as a result i
got a request from my client actually construct the stand uh from cedarburg it has three doors
and it comes in a compartment well it comes with a compartment can be used to store several
items um probably you can even use it as a means of storing uh food for the fish
or even food for the host no thin stuff right now it has a dark color no one reason why i'm not
going to actually place the aquarium on the top of this stand is because for me i believe um that the
aquarium should be it's a little bit dusty just coming from the shaft i believe that the aquarium
so i i think that uh uh some form of aquarium matin or a soft uh material should be placed
on the top of the stand here before actually placing the aquarium on it now uh my wife she
said that the aquarium should have well the stance should not be a little bit higher now
uh the fact that the aquarium is 18 inches and itself looks roughly about probably about
another 18 inches right um that should give good height in actually feeding the fish
taking care of fishing so that you have to be standing on something so as to reach in right
it's a good height to me no you have aquarium stands that are built um in jamaica and i
think it is also built in other jurisdictions where it is built out of super board and that's
a super board i mean like you know board that as soon as water actually touches it
you find that it starts to fall apart now this is hard work the only thing that will happen with
this is that um the color might be a little bit um you know messed up but this is hardboard right and
this this build was done this way so as to ensure durability now uh i went into an aquarium
a pet shop the other day and i saw uh stuff i'm not looking so studious not to say that
i'm blowing my own horn but not looking so students as this one and i realized that um it
it's it's it's not it's not that well done and um chances are if water do catches it it will
actually fall apart right so i like building my aquarium stand out of her for those persons
wishing for a project like this to be done by me for you you can um contact me i'm using uh any
of the social media um you know medium um that is listed below right now this project actually cost
a little yeah a good amount of penny yes but at the same time i think it was of a great value so
this is the stack done it's completely right it's completely um covered sides but the
sides the bottom the top it has doors right nice color nice sheen all of that
and this aquarium will be placed on top of the the stand and this aquarium uh the volume of
water will be roughly about between 600 and 650 yeah but 650 pounds right so you can imagine the
wheel glass itself will be about roughly available probably about 300 so in total um this stand will
actually be holding nearly a ton of weight uh is hope that you will stay tuned for the rest of this
series as i actually put everything together so here i'll show you the stand stand is built
ready to be delivered now i am going to be you know putting the stones yeah i actually
got some of the stones not all right but this is another story in which i'm going to be sharing
another share right this is the stones i'm going to be doing the stones the background
the filtrations in the plant and all of that in the next year is hope that you will stay tuned
until the end and you will see everything actually placed together
this is really here for another fish keep in jamaica have a wonderful day bless her
