Mel's New Tank Journal

[Ferg1985]

Beautiful set up and I love those plants! haha.. I may have to invest in some for my 5 footer when it arrives, need something to overcrowd the back of the tank. Great backrground too, they do so much more for the aquascaping that the photograph backgrounds. Shall keep an eye on this one

how about attatching some Anubias on the backing?

i'm about to do it on my Juwel backing, attaching with super glue.

Is super glue fish safe?

Nice work Mel that's a fantastic looking tank. I especially love the back ground those 3d back grounds look great, but like you I think they look funny with there cracks and they look so regimented if you have 2 the same side by side. What you have done I have never seen done before and it works my compliments.

Keep up the good work

Regards onebto.

Is super glue fish safe

superglue is fine, if you attach it to the rhizome of the plant and stick it on.

MM,

I found the seller on the auction site, thanks.
How's the 2217+ performing?
Did you get enough media to use out of the box?

You seem to have a 'nack' for decor!

Hehe see my new post on the hardware section, my 2217+ isn't performing well as it's whistling?!
I got tonnes of media, too much in fact, that's a good deal but I just really need to silence the thing!

Hi few pics of how it's looking, not much change at the moment, added some tank friends (I know I know, some are going to get too large, but I will part with them when they do, for now they are good buddies and cute babies and everything is fabulous)
