Whats the stocking list of that tank? You should have the sides of the tank under somthing sturdy like the middle of it is because thats causing stress to the glass and seams and could make it bow down and break.

Might just be the photo quality.. i think there is a tank stand that extends to the edges of the tank..?

Nice tank...

 

[Dany]

yeh its just the pic. there are sides to the stand...its a fluval duo deep with the proper tank stand.

 

[Durbkat]

Oh I guess since its dark you couldn't see it. So whats the stocking list of the tank?

 

[Ginge]

Is that the dou deep 1000 or 1200?

 

[Dany]

its a 1200

Wait so what you're saying is that if there are small sides of the tank sticking out, the tank can break?

 

[Durbkat]

It depends on how much of the tank is not suported because it will cause the tank to bow out then it will break leaving about 55g on water on the floor.

 

[SamUK]

if its the 1200 the pic makes it look smaller.



nice setup tho!

love the fish!

Well, mine is sticking out just barely, maybe a 1/4 inch on both sides, possible less. Is this bad? How bad?

-Sorry to jack your thread Dany

Nice tank, especially that driftwood piece in the middle there ... What kind of fish do you have?

 

[Matty]

looks like african cichlids, but i cant really tell

i love the dim lighting, looks very natural.

 

[_Cal_]

No they look like new worlds to me.

 

[Dany]
