Tanks A Lot

saboy · Jun 26, 2006

Welcome to the thread where everyone can post pictures of their tanks and show them off, it would be good to have all of our members tanks in one easy to find place, with all the tank specifications, so other users can get idea on the aquascaping, and what filtration, lighting, etc that they have, so they can see how other people are aquascaping and what equipment that are using so they can impove their own setups and learn new things and idea's.

When posting pictures of your tank/s, then use the below info and copy and paste it or type it out into your reply, then fill in the info for your tank/s, and then the pictures

Hey, I recently created a coldwater habitat for my girlfriend's birthday, I was going for the sandy bogwood effect but many things changed over the course of setting it up, heres a few pics...

Here it is cycling...

Added some rocks...

Then some java moss and fern tied down with cotton...

And here it is today, with some new bogwood and rounded stones to complete the background...

We've also taken some of the fern shoots off the leaves and re-planted them on the bogwood...

Just thought I'd show the whole development so far on my lass's tank.

Tank Size: 10 UK gallon

Occupants: 1 Black Moor named Marley

Filtration: Clear-Seal 200

Lighting: 14W sun-glo

Substrate: Tiny pebble gravel and white pea-shingle

Plants: java fern, java moss, moss balls

Other Equipment: Heater [in the winter]

Hope u like
