My Tank (revamped)

[lankey89]

Here's my tank. Decided to finally put some money into it and am really pleased with how it looks. Any comments are welcome. Always open to ideas, just want to make my tank look great. Stupid fish wouldn't stay still for the camera so look blurred. Cheers

looks like your redtailed shark is actually a rainbow shark, does it have red on all its fins or just it's tail?

gorgeous tank

Looks great I like the wood.

Won't you have to get a bigger tank for most of those fish? But it looks nice.

I thought it was a rainbow shark when i bought it but the guy assured me it was a red tailed shark. stuck by his word but now u mention it then it deffo is ! ! Yea i will have to re-house many of them. I've had them all for so long they're finally starting to outgrow the tank.

i think it looks ace...maybe a smidge sparse on the top third but other than that ace!!

 

[GuppyDude]

Very cool, do you have any before pics?

 

[lankey89]

unfortunately no but trust me it was naff. ive changed it from gravel to sand, rocks to bogwood and chucked all the old grotty plants and bought some fresh new ones. like bennett said theres not much at the top, just gotta wait for the plants to grow.

Your plant life is awsome! How do you keep it so green? My banana plant is starting to go brown only after 6 months of it's initial planting.

banana plants are not meant to be buried if thats what you mean they are meant to sit on the surface

[Genesis]

very nice tank mate!

good luck keeeping those silver dollars from eating every plant in the tank

 

[lankey89]

lol i know, they eat absolutely evreything ! ! few questions to answer then.

1.

great tank two questions are those amazon swords on the right and how big is it

Yes it is and it is quite big. had it for a while and is still growing nicely. Approx 20cm tall.

2.

how much was each piece of wood because thats what i need in my tank to make it look more fishy

Each piece of wood was an amazing £4.99 from Pets @ Home. I Thought they were going to be like 15 each but when they went through at that price i didn't know what to say. The lady said that's their usual price too ! !

3.

Your plant life is awsome! How do you keep it so green?

Really I just put the plants in and leave them to it. I add a Plant Grow chemical twice a week and have the light on for 10 hours a day. Then its just down to the plants.

Hope thats helped a few of you. Thanks for the coments
