    Default Help with structural tubs


    I need a little help. I bought a bunch of dish pan tubs to make some structure for the fish to hold on. I am having difficulty keeping my slabs standing up. I used about 40lb of concrete which filled the tub 3/4 full. I angled the slats but they keep falling out of the tub. How long do u make the slats and do you fill the tub completely to the top with concrete?

    Build you a frame with legs to go around your uprights for them to rest on. After they set up just lift the structure out of the frame.

    We have been doing the same thing for years. I use short boards and they stay in place. Name:  Picture 046.jpg
