Absolutely fantastic !! One of the best thought out filtration systems I have ever seen including the very cool gadgets you have controlling flow etc. Your passion is evident. Tanks interior is very nice ... one suggestion ... I would not use small rocks stacked to make caves, I would go to a landscape outlet and get bigger rocks and try to design caves with a "more natural" appearance. You have a lot of room to work with and would literally double the size of the rocks used for this set up. Other than that very impressive work my friend !!!!!!!!

Wow beautiful setup!!! I would add a big peice of driftwood right in the middle and get some bigger stones for more of a river bottom look then the tinny little rocks you have.. The tank will look amazing with whatever you decide & those are some lucky fish
@alfredorosado16 жыл бұрын
Justin Servo apprecaite the input. I've had many tanks over the years, and most of them with driftwood. I am leaning towards not putting any in this setup because, I don't want any tannins yellowing the water. I want my sand to stay white and in the past, even a small price of driftwood would give the sand a tint of yellow. I did get in there last night and take a lot of rock out, mostly the slates, so that it somewhat matches the 3d wall. I think the new look opened up my tank more. They swim around much more now.
