pTank

Welcome to the home of pTank, small DIY Acrylic tank kits designed to inspire. All kits are supplied without adhesive for DIY construction. It’s not as hard as you think, all tank pieces are masked. An angle plate, magnet & masking tape helps with construction, but a can of beans (Tesco or Heinz) can be used instead, to hold that wobbly bit! Please see the guide below for more information.

Recommended Adhesives

Professional Grade (best results) – Tensol 12 (see link below) , Weld-On

Consumer Grade (smaller tanks only) – Loctite All Purpose – Heavey Duty, LePage Heavy Duty Contact Cement

Whilst building the Pico tanks, from the kit, is pretty easy, it does help to practice sometimes first, before the floor gets wet. Introducing......the pTank Pico Practice! This tiny kit is roughly half the size of the classic and is a great way to practice your DIY skills, before trying a bigger kit. Available now. #picoscape #picotankclub #aquascaping #aquarium Happy New Year! Thanks all for your support. I have been working on a few new things.
