New 4Ft Tank.

[minnnt]

Thanks mate, it cost £100 second hand, but its not in bad nick really. Came with a fluval 305, 300w heater, 150w heater and 2 fish which I have sold for £30, so a bargain really. The cost when new was about £700.

As for rocks, I always make sure they're solidly placed. I guess they could move but at the moment non of the fish are big enough to shift them. Its not how I want it really, still trying to find inspiration for the setting.

Cheers.

[SchottayB]

How the hell do I know who to add on there? I don't even know your name mint!

 

[SchottayB]

Haha, the only time I use it is on my iPhone when I get notifcations pop up. Never go on it on the laptop at home.

I don't think plants will mix with my Veija though.


Thanks Caz.

Do you like rockscapes? I could totally see you having a rockscape in this tank... like these.

You would definitely need to limit yourself to a few fake or no plants.

 

[SchottayB]

The seccond picture! That would look stunning!!

They're not really my cup of tea i don't think. Bare in mind the Veija is going to reach 12" when mature. May take a look in the new world cichlid journals for some idea's.

Then you're looking at minimal decor really aren't you? Couple of rocks, bit of wood, maybe a fake plant. Same as you would for an oscar... not much "scaping" you can do...

 

[minnnt]

Sounds perfect Caz. Wish i'd have gone for dark substrate now... Oh well, can always change it later.

Thinking of adding some real plants as a trial once the Rainbows have gone. Need some better rocks and some more branch type structures.
