I'd like to build my own tank but don't know where to begin. Does anyone know if there are any applications or webpages available where I can calculate the measurements of the pieces needed?
So far I've only found one application and it's made mostly for constructing vivariums. |

you can use any CAD program to achieve this.
you get what measurements you want/have and plug them in, then connect the dots and you have it, it even calculates the mesaurements for you down to the hundrenth. |

o and if you have a specific area in mind, like say i got this rocking old desk from a school that was closing. Nice hard wood that measures on top 38" x 18". You can figure out your gallons here...
