Watch your little water creatures grow in this awesome little aquarium.

Make the Base

14, 12:30 PM.jpg
This is what will support the bottom. Make a beginning layer using black bricks to make a base of 6x8.

Make Another Layer

14, 12:31 PM.jpg
Make another layer on the original base so nothing will fall out.

Make It Flat

Put brown tiles into the middle of the base. It will cover 4x6 of the black base.

Making the "Glass"

Cover up the unused areas with clear 1x2 pieces.

Make the Second Layer

Make another layer. Almost done.

Last Layer

This is the last "glass" layer. No kidding.

Flatten the "glass"

Get pieces that look like the pic and combine it like shown.

Put in Sand

You have the option to use real sand or not. I'm gonna put the 1x1 stud legos. You'll use about 28.

Put Water, Animal, Lid, and Done!

I suggest that you should use tiny snails that don't grow of baby shrimp, such as sea monkeys and what not. Many newly born baby fish. But you're done! Good job.
