TOTM for the after pic it looks great!

is that a 10 gallon? i like the thing u did with the rocks...

Trev,
It's beautiful, well done. Almost like art don't you think. Tell us about the egg shaped object please.
Alaska

your stand...is it the one where you mke it and can adjust the shelfs? i think im using the same thing, it works great and is extremely strong.

anyways looks great! love the cave, i think i might have to make one of those.

I know you could care less but this is what I would do.

Move the egg shaped rock to where the small plant is on the right, put the tall plant in the back where the egg shaped rock was and put the small plant where the tall plant was. It would look better imo because the rocks would be at opposite sides of the tank for a more spread out look. Then it's a general rule to have tall plants in the back and smaller in the front. I think it would look good. Just my opinion though. Looks good the way you have it!!!!

Thanks everyone for the nice comments!

Ok let me answer some questions here

It's a 20 gallon tank.
The egg shaped thing is a rock that used to be in a previous tank I had, many years ago.
Yeah! The stand is an adjustable metal shelf thing. I love it, I have my top shelf for my 20 gallon, my middle shelf for my 3 gallon, and my last shelf for equipment and all that stuff Works great!
Those suggestions are great Auratus and make prefect sense. I was thinking the same thing about the large plant being in the background instead of the front. The problem is that the rock is holding down the driftwood. I don't think that piece will ever become water logged. Not sure how I would want to keep my driftwood down other then using the rock. If I can come up with a way to keep the wood down, ill go ahead and make those changes that you suggested. Thanks again everyone. and thanks for the nomination mike

Oh man! Now I have to go change, I have wet myself with awe and amazement!!



You have really done well Trevor!

Oh yes, tanks that pretty can do lots of things to us fish fanatics .............in fact, I think I see my fish trying to jump outta my tank and into yours .......so I better close this pic! You are making me look bad Trevor !!!

good improvement! Good lighting too

Nice tank.. I think mine is just to busy..

i need ot go minimal like yours

WOW Trevor! Great tank! I second the nominations....
About the driftwood..... It will become water logged.... eventually. (For anyone else reading this--I found that piece 7 years ago and sold it to Trevor last month) I didn't realize it would take this long though--for that I am sorry. )
When I found it by the Farmington River in CT, it was water-logged..... The thing is, that It was dry for so many years, and it's a dense piece of wood so it will probably take longer than the really soft porous driftwoods available.

But the tank still looks awesome!
