Acrylic cylinder aquariums are typically made by bonding together flat sheets of acrylic using a special solvent called methyl methacrylate (MMA). The process involves several steps:

 

Cutting the acrylic sheets to size: The sheets are cut to the desired dimensions using a saw or laser cutter.

 

Acrylic cylinder aquariums Polishing the edges: The edges of the sheets are polished to create a smooth, clear finish.

 

Acrylic cylinder aquariums Bonding the sheets: The sheets are then bonded together using MMA. The sheets are clamped together and the MMA is applied to the joint between the sheets. The MMA solvent dissolves the surface of the acrylic, allowing the sheets to bond together as the solvent evaporates.

 

Acrylic cylinder aquariums Sanding and buffing the joint: Once the MMA has cured, the joint is sanded and buffed to create a smooth, clear finish.

 

Adding the base and top: The base and top of the aquarium are then attached using a similar process, creating a watertight seal.

 

Testing for leaks: The aquarium is then filled with water and tested for leaks. Any leaks are repaired using additional MMA.

 

Overall, the process requires careful attention to detail to ensure a strong, watertight bond and a high-quality finish.
