own made watercooling reservoir(fishtank)

jort · 26th June 2004, 19:58

here are some pics of my second full plexi reservoir.(first wasn't a succes,plexi was 1mm thick)
i think i don't going to use it to put it in my waterloop but let my waterloop go trough it.
i'll put a fish or something swimming in it to have a cool effect in my future project with my phase-change.

i will finisch it soon but the most impotant is that its tight

make sure that you use silicon that is protected against acids because when you add ant-freeze to the water, it will eat your silicon away, and you will have a leak

been there done that, use tec7

i wont put anti-freeze in it .
don't think a fish would survive that

They dont have that thick plexy and the thinner ones are already expensive
