This is my 14 gallon hexagon! It's so not pretty, I just havent had the time or money to fix it up....Im gonna change the gravel and try to hide the airstone bar....maybe get some plants ?? Anyone have any idea's???

And here is my hubby's 10 gallon aquarium! (You cant see the other fish all that good, but there is a catfish behind the goldfish)

The catfish and goldfish always sweep the sand to the other side, they always stay in that one corner

& finally here is the picture of the turtle we found, its an escambia map turtle. he loves to eat lettuce, shrimp, and anything else you put in his tank. Soon he will be in a 10 gallon of his own...when I get some more $$$$

is that sand in the 10g?

does it cloud the water or get into the filter or kill the fish?

ooSho · Mar 30, 2004

Yes, that is (play)sand in the 10 gallon. I've had it in there since the beginning of February...it settled real quickly and it has never clogged my filter. No fish has died since I put sand in the tank *knock on wood*

I would take out that castle and put a layer of sand. I like more natural looking tanks, the other one with the sand-sweeper

is really cool

A couple of tall fake plants in the hex would be pretty cool, add some texture. Your fish look happy.

Ditto Jams. Alaskan

I'd find a REALLY tall fake plant, maybe reddish or something and put it in the middle so it goes all the way to the top. Not too bushy though, you wouldn't want to take up too much swimming room. Other than that, maybe you could add a little color with some more gravel.......maybe a darker green or blue.....plus it would cover up your air stone.

I love Hexagon's for small fish. They are lovely to look at!

NIce aquariums..

I like the sand ... have a look at treefrogs tank.. wood is also a nice sight.

Bamboo looks really cool in tall hex tanks.

you can get it with leaves sprouting out and if you put a quite a few pieces in there resting at different angles the fish love to swim through it.. It will break up your airbubble too.. nice tanks

Thanks everyone for the nice comments!

I was thinking about putting sand back into the 14hex...I like the idea of bamboo, but I dont know where I would find some
