Love the tank with the sand, but not keen on the first tank with the coloured gravel.
 
Coloured gravel always looks fake.
Don't like coloured ornaments either.
I like to see natural looking tanks myself.
 
Yes. Second tank likes good though.

What fish have you got in the first and second tanks? You could rehome the community fish in the other tank for a couple of hours while you redo the community tank with sand, some black or blue backing and some nice hardy live plants (like Java Fern.)
 
No i meant the tank with sand does that look fake as it all is no real plants or anything

Will do that once i have more money where could i put them all though?

Also -
Community - 2 opaline gouramis
2 plecos (common and albino i know they'll get to big BTW willbe rehoming)
5 neons
5 zebra danios
3 sailfn mollys
2 swordtails
6 cories
Also they're is little holes at the front of the tank which are udner the sand and they look liek them air pockets you get what can you do to remove them.
 
No i meant the tank with sand does that look fake as it all is no real plants or anything

yes, because all the decor is super bright, might be better once some algae grows to die it sown a bit ;)

you could always add some moss balls, anubias, java fern, bolbitis, hygrophillia polysperma, valli
 
Low maintenance plants like java fern and anubias look good.

Personally I think the first tank looks pretty nasty, the second ones quite good. With some work they could both look good.


But its all personal preference, I can't stand the fake look.
 
i liek ur tanks, though i do agree on the colored gravel issue. the second one looks amazing tho.. good job

as for the bubbles, if u mean ur newly set up tank. thats just what seems to always happen when u first set a tank up.. bubbles everywheres. they go after a while tho
 
If the tank just been set up it normal to have tiny bubbles over everything.
 
The second ones fake and you said u kinda like dat

Fake plants yes, and the ornament isn't to my taste. But the first one isn't any more natural, the coloured gravel and background look horrible imo.

Some Java fern behind the bogwood in the second one would look good, java ferns indestructable and looks good behind bogwood.
 
Does anyone sell this on here or on ebya as my LFS don' do it and if they do its not labelled anyway. Statues took out
and ythat small hole in the bogwood has ubbles blowimng out of it. a SO AV NOTHIMNG ELSE TO WRITE CAN YOU WRITE A FULL LIST OF WHAT YOU WOULD DO IF RE-DOIN MY TANK not INCLUDING LIVE PLANTS.
