New tank

[bunjiweb]

This is a 30 litre hex tank, very nicely built, micro filter and heater with light in hood.

Got this lovely piece of rock from the fish shop that looks kinda like a wave.... very cool

and now a shot of all 3 tanks...

Enjoy

i think im gonna have to get my brother to move out of my room so i can get one of those hex tanks! it looks sweeeeeeeeeeet.

btw...if you dont mind me asking..how much did it all cost?

EDIT....also which gamestation do you work in

Its really nice, I think my platies and danios will enjoy it

Cost me £75 with light hood, 220l/h power filter, 25W heater & a couple of other things.

I looks very nice but the tank with the stones and rocks stacked is very beautiful in it's simplicity.

I think they all look great. What are you putting in them?

In the larger tank i want a plec, i saw a small one which was like black and grey striped at my lfs and it said it only grew to 10cm which would suit me perfect. I also want to get maybe a couple of corries and some guppies and maybe black widow tetra....

I generally decide as I go along and visualise the tank in my mind with the fish in whilst trying to make sure i get good community fish.

In the Hex I am going to put my 3 Zebra Danios and 3 Platies along with maybe something else like a couple of guppies but not sure yet.

The 5 gal if i can fix it I might get a betta but I will probably have to get a whole new light, heater and filter and also make a new hood.... sucks.

It sounds like they'll be great! I can't wait to see tehm with the fish in them. Are you going with fishless cycling, or getting a few starters?

Nice tank setups ben. The rock makes it look so natural, but very stylish B)

I am cycling the 60l with 3 pearl danios and they're doing very nicely, It should be cycled in a few days.

The 30 litre has nothing in it at present as i only just set it up. It will be having the contents of my 5gal in it in a week or 2..

Its a 60 litre juwel tank with inbuilt filter, heater & hood with light.

The large rocks in it are volcanic rock and the large pebbles to the left are jurrasic period rocks from a beach in cornwall, england
