hey nice tank :)

Are you going to raise the water level so that you cannot see it?
 
Lovely tank you got there, Looks like it was tricky to get the wood in between the braces!

Looks pretty completed twist of hoses and cables under the tank :S

I'm liking the look of the samurai swords on top :D
 
thats a sick tank, i should have one of them in my room by hopefully feb next year ( after i get back from holidays ), where in australia are you, and where did you get that wood, simply beautiful.
 
Few questions.

1) Did you build the tank?

2) Did you build the stand and conopy?

3) What at you going to do about lighting?

4) Acrylic or glass and if not DIY who made it?



NICE LOOKING BY THE WAY AND LOVELY WOOD!
