Not that anyone's seen my tank's old look, but anyway...

It used to have a big chunk of driftwood on the bottom, but it wasn't as a soaked as I thaught it was and still had tennons in it.

The yellow tint is mostly attributed to that, my style of photography and manipulation as well as the glare.

The blur in the top-centre of this one would be my male platy - they're nice little fish but don't like having their photos taken.

A whole-shot of the tank. That long, white blur at the top is one of my albino cories. They don't like the whole concept of "staying still".

My three platies. I was actually only trying to get my male - the one in the centre in this shot, the others were just a fluke. :)

And lastly, another whole-shot of the tank and a glimpse of my room's other décor.

I hope you like them. :) I don't have much experience taking photos of fish or fish tanks (and I know I should've waited 'til it was dark in order to prevent glare, but I was too impatient :p). Sure, my tank's not that exotic, but it really looks good in my room, and I think common fish have a sort of humble charm about them... as well as the fact that they're typically hard to kill. :)

Hey, thanks everyone, I'm glad you like it. :)
nice, how many gallon is it
Click to expand...

Thanks. It's thirty-four litres, so less than ten US gallons.



The idol heads (which my brother (who they used to belong to) named 'Goobas')are just cheap, hollow, teracotta ornaments. I used them because the rest of my room has some old Papua New Guinean stuff on the walls like arrows, a spear, walking sticks, etc. so it seemed to kind of fit (even though the heads are just generic images and the fish are South American... -_- ), as well as the fact that it looks cool. :D

If time permits I may try to get some better photos later.
