1x EPOX-635416 = 10 Gallon kit $490.00

1x set of EPX-P41 $6.75

16 yards of FG-C0738 fiberglass cloth $76.00 = $572.75 + $169.98 shipping = $742.73 total


here is what I put on reefcentral

even der wille zur macht used it for reef application
I remember seeing on Monster Fish Keepers someone building a Plywood tank for FAR cheaper then this. I haven't done any research into the matter but I remember thinking that, thats fairly inexpensive. You might want to look on that forum and see wha they have to say as there are alot of Plywood builds there. This was more then 2 years ago tho.
