Step 5: Supports

Now after I have it all together I took coloured electrical tape and taped around the sides of the tank as you can see in the pictures. Now this can be done with duct tape and really you don't even have to do it, I just thought it would add a little stregth to the over all design.
 Next I made some supports for the tank...FEET! I just  cut some styro-foam into rectangular pieces and notched them in the center half way down the thickness of the tank. I also went crazy with the electrical tape on them as well. But it is neccessary to add stregnth to the feet because the styro-foam is brittle and will break. Adding tape beef's them right up though! Now the tank will be able to stand upright.
