    Hi all, i have a problem postings pics, so to view this tank for sale, please check my thread for my tank under 'MEMBERS SYSTEMS", it will be called, MY PLANTED TANK, and started by myself.

    Tank is an AZOO acrylic aquarium, rounded front corners, dimensions are 1m x 500 x 500
    tank is on azoo stand with cupboard.
    filtration : one small internal powerhead filter, one large boyu internal powerhead with filer attachment which also feeds water to Fluval external cannister filter, and a HOB filter, i have the boxes for most of the items.
    heaters : 1 x 300watt and 1 x 150watt via-aqua heaters
    Lighting : 1 x dual T5 24/39 watt ballast, 2 x24watt T5 tubes mounted in azoo housing with splash proof fittings and also a hemo 38watt pl tube light fitting, both sit on top of tank, tank is open top
    substrate : substrate is a mixture of fine pure white sand and black substrate
    plants : there are loads of plants, i dont know the names of all, anubias, corkscrew vallis, normal vallis, amazon sword, indian java fern, hygro, glossos and lots more
    decor : 2 large and 2 small pieces of wood, with anudias attachedm and moss also, also 2 flat rocks in tank creating a small slope, have lots more rocks which you may have.
    fish : 5xcoral red danios, 2xneons, 2xSAE's, 2xotto's, 1xsterbai cory, 1xalbino cory, about 8xbronze corys, 1xdiscus, 2x starlight galaxy ancistrus (there are a few more, i know its lots of fish for this tank, but i had 2 tanks and took down the one, so all my fish is in this tank, may seem a little overstocked but all seems ok in the tank)
    extras : 1/2seachem prime, some seachem flourish, 3/4 seachem comprehensive, flake food, terta bits, bloodworm, ocean nutrition special mix frozen food, tweezers for planting, buckets for water changes, siphon pipes, long plastic grip to remove items from bottom of tank, also have a spare 50ltr tank with gravel substrate which i will include in this deal, lots more extras.

    reason for sale : i am no longer able to maintain my tank unfortunately, financially and time wise, its sad as i have put lots of effort, time and money into this tank and it is my best tank yet.

    price : i relaise that whatever price im going to feel fit for this setup is going to seem like too much, so if someone is interested, i would appreciate you send me a reasonable offer and we can discuss.

    Thank you

    Howzit dude, sorry i have not replied, i really want to sell the whole thing together with all fish and plants etc, i love the tank as it is and would liek to sell it to someone the same way, but should i struggle to get it sold and need to have to sell things off seperately, then i have you in mind for the ancistrus. they are about 3cm and growing super fast.

    Hi @Nadeem

    Remember I told you your camera or phone saves your pictures in a non-standard format. Download that program I told you about (IrfanView) and you can change their format and post pictures.
