Hm, that's a good idea, having the clips glued in, so you can take all the rocks out to clean. Do you think hot glue is safe for fish?

No worse than cured silicone used by factories to seal the glass.

Good point! Now I just need to find room for an aquarium in my over-crowded house! The one I had before was 20-gallon, and I would really like to go bigger. I'd love to have a mini-diorama in there, with scuba divers, shark cage and shark, rocks, coral, diving bell, possibly even a small shipwreck, all playmobil! If we ever do build an outbuilding for our playmobil, which would have to be ACed anyway to keep the plastic from melting in this heat, I could have the aquarium out there. I'd spend a lot of time out there anyway.

One word of caution, you would need to insulate the building, & the AC unit would need to be a least 220 amp service. It costs out the tush to power an uninsulated building, & too hot will kill your fish :o.

Bill, got any subs? I have the small diving bell (#4478) and the big Trieste/Research Submarine (LOVE it!), and the small Nautila (#3064) is incoming.

My first diver was the modern Deep Diver. In fact, it was the first klicky I bought for myself as an adult, which started this landslide.

Oh, yes, I'm definitely big on insulation. You can't POSSIBLY keep anything remotely cool here without really good insulation. Especially since all the trees we used to have behind our house are now gone and there is no shade.  ::)

Yes, I have 2 4469 Research Ships, 1 4473 large Research Sub, 8 4479 Deep Divers, 1 4500 Shark Cage, but I'm being required to stop from collecting the 4489 whale & 4488 underwater sealife sets due to money restraints :'(! This theme is one I really like. :love:

I think i may have to give in and go for this one, too, along with the diving bell!  :love: They have the diving bell at my TRU, and I may get it soon. It's a pretty cool theme, and even though I never intended to collect it, I've ended up with every set except these two!
