Hey guys, well i've made myself a home made reservoir finally, after looking around for one here in Toronto i found the prices a bit too expensive for me.
So here it is along with the parts i used 1. Betta fish tank from wal mart about 6-8 inches high, 5-6 inch diameter 2. Gatorade bottle 3. 90 degree elbos 4. Goop it cost me around 10 bucks cad to build ![]() i used the top part of the gatorade bottle (the capping mechanism) as a removable cover for my reservoir. Ok so heres a pic of the final peice

You should put some fishies in there. I bet they'll like the heat.
While you're deathmatch fighting in Q3, you can watch your fishies deathmatch next to a P4. *snickers*

You should be able to estimate size from the Goop tube. Everyone should be familiar with Goop
