Basic To Flourishing (Pic Heavy)

[elisew]

Thank you

I`m really, really happy with how healthy the tank looks now and as I said previously it`s majoritively because of the good advice I received from other members on this forum

I guess the look of the tank at the beginning was more about how I wanted it to look much rather than what would be best for the fish, it`s a case of inexperience and ignorance basically and I was stupid enough to take advice from a crap lfs to boot.
I thought that as long as there was somewhere for the fish to hide under the ship then that was enough........WRONG!!! lol.

I`m just glad that I found this Forum and got the brill advice I`ve got, hence a nice looking tank and happy fish

I bet you can't wait until it's mature. Looking good as is but when it's established it will be fantastic.

Yeah I hope so. Unfortunately I can`t just leave things alone and always feel like I could improve things, so no doubt a few bits will change here and there

is this the tank the one from MA?? looks really good and natural...are you still after a centerpiece fish/fishes? A pair of rams would suite this set up!

nice work.

 

[elisew]

Thank you Yes the tank is from MA

Got 2 pairs of GBR`s in the tank, females are still quite small though

The only fish so far that I`ve seen are the Pearl Gourami that I have seriously considered as a centrepiece. Not quite 100% yet though so will wait until I`m definite on something.

Cool tanks Lisa. My favourite is the 35 litre quarantine

 

[fluffycabbage]

Gorgeous I love the small tanks, are they aqua one, arc? i have an oceanfree 80l which is virtually identical

 

[elisew]

So I put lots of effort into my community tank, a bit less into the shrimp tanks and yet the empty quarantine tank is nicer? Lol thanks Carl.....I think

Thanks fluffy

The 35 and 20L tanks are Arcadia, not sure about the 10L as I borrowed that from my friend when I started getting overrun with the RCS.

 

[stevereade]

Some lovely moss balls in there lol.

Less is more lisa
The 360 litre is fantastic too.
Though I still cant get your previous 180 litre tank out of my head, i still love it
