i was given an old tank by a friend, complete with a couple of fish.. but it was a bit plasticy and fake. also looked like it was gonna break at any point. SO im ditching that and putting them in here.
I i have just been setting up a new rio 180.. its a bit cloudy as i am cycling at the moment, or a bit discoloured as there are still a few tanins coming from the wood, but that should clear when i do the big water change at the end.
Its not gonna be a planted tank, as i have standard light and no CO2.. i have just put some first layer laterite in so far. i may add a bit of anubia at the front of the rocks. I am also getting a java moss coconut cave delivered for the cory's..
No fish yet.. this is work in progress. The planting is a bit amateur as its my first go.. sticking java fern to a log can be a right pain. Hopefully it will look better when the valis grows. pics a buit crap too.
I just want a simple, easy to maintain tank without plastic really.
