Hello

i recently sold my aqua one tank and purchased this 4ft tank off ebay with cabinet only 3 months old for £130. stocking is listed below. its around about 220-240litres
the backround i have painted blue rather then a backround n looks great if i dont say so myself.

any comments welcomed.

thanks for looking.

looking good :good:
any more fish to be added or is this the final stocking? also is there any real plants in there are all of them fake?
 
there all fake.. im thinking i may remove the 3 catfishes as they are a pagasius species. so may loook at getting some BNs. although i wouldnt mind a pair of angel fishes in there.. but think i may add some kind of tetra and that will be it.

all plants are fake. have never really gotten into real plants due to maintenance but would like to get really plants soon.
 
why not take the catfishes back and swap for maybe 10 pentazona barbs, or tigers, pentazonas are smaller and not as agressive so tbh i would go with these.
 
hmmm pentanzon barbs.. might look into them. as my barbs are quite large n very active... i find all the fish school together. the clowns school with the barbs assuming there probaly the same. when ever the barbs zip across the tanks the rainbows follow along with the mollies n the rest. its quite cool.

i have seen the barbs b quite aggressive to eachother though.
i will have to ring the fish shop n see what they say.
 
i love the way you have painted the end too. it works really well. are both ends painted?
 
that blue background does look cool what kind of pain was that ? may steal your idea!
!!
 
Tanks looks great, I like the blue background. Good price for the size :)
 
Dont really like the white sand or the fake plants, some nice fish though.
 
well ive painted just the back and one end witha blue acrylic paint. means you dont get the problem, of losing the colour when u look at an angle. its been a while since ive posted on here but will be removing sand for black gravel and also have 2 big new pieces of wood and have also planted live plants. will be updating soon.
