this tank is amazing. What kind of cost are we looking at here? Ive got a 90L roma and want to upgrade to a larger tank in the summer (200L maybe?)

What have all your plants cost u? and the luminaire,CO2 system,extra filter,plants and so on.

I reckon my tank has cost me in the region of 200 quid (i got the tank,cabinet and filter for 75..the heater,plants,gravel,background pic and fish have made up the rest)

Dont wanna spend too much more on the upgrade so may steer clear of planted and just have some bogwood and anubias/java fern/moss in the new tank.

Photos just had a resize, and straight off the camera, the Tamron 90mm macro is a great lens! Shame the camera its attached to! lol

Think that is enough photos for one day haha
