After all the planting, let the tank settle over night again and then did a 100% WC before adding in the shrimp and Cory's on Monday morning....
Have a look at the Bean Animal overflow. It's one of the most effective set ups I've seen, tried and tested too. Gives you a safety factor as well...
Wow, awesome set ups there! One day I'd love to have a fish room like that. Welcome!
I love it! Might have to sleep with one eye open if some of the ADA heads see the drilling comment :lol: Never understood why sumps aren't more...
Sheesh... I would've screwed some 2x4s together and called it a day with the stand. The level of thought that's gone into this matches the...
That all got planted and was left to settle overnight. On Sunday, I picked up some new additions to fill the rest of the space up. My goal for...
Spent most of Saturday breaking down the old tank. Catching hundreds of tiny shrimp and harvesting some of the epiphytes and crypts for the new...

Thank you ! I've found the black to be the easiest with creating a clean look on the tank. Without it being a high-tech setup, the background...
Gonna be a shame to have you go Guppy. Hopefully we'll see you here again in the future :thumbup: Good luck with the sale!
No not barebottom. Ive got a fine sprinkling of decorative sand I'd like to cover the bottom with. Im wanting quite a clean look after the jungle...
Got some Itsa aquasoil too. Heard some good reviews about it and it was well priced so I took the plunge. Decided to cap it after watching all...
Got my substrate system sorted out today. Plugged all the holes in my hardscape with some filter sponge and then added a base later of chunkier...
Won't ask where you learn those skill from ;) Keep us updated with the planting please! Would love to see the first future tank members
Sheesh that's seriously impressive!! Very ingenuitive. :thumbup: Glad there's some chemistry nuts around that can figure this stuff out. I'd...
Thanks Scotty! Yeah already got a few pygmy Cory's coming across from the other tank. Brilliant nano fish those
