Nice pics What fish have you got in there? One of them looks like a goldfish, Or is that a platy? And whats the size? Looks huge!!

 

[fishykisses]

it's a 7ft - 96G, the goldfish looking fish is a balloon molly
There's also congo tetra's, neon tetras, rummynose tetra's
Boesmani rainbow's, dwarf neon rainbows, upsidedown catfish, platys, a few guppies,
a trio of apisto's, 4 bolivian rams, a few danios, 4 gold marble angels
i think that's it oh...a couple cory's and a whole bunch of trumpet and red ramhorn snails

Looking good...it's coming on well.

I would still change the background to plain black though.

 

[jimbooo]

i agree with hondour, a black background would make the plants stand out much better.

apart from that awesome tank, i want one.

Thanks looking great mate, can I ask what substrate you are using in there as its the exact colour I want to go for. Not too dark but not too sandy either.

 

[debiasir]

thats a luvly tank

looks so good

 

[fishykisses]

Piper - the substrate is FloraBase, a substrate specifically for planted tanks.
Here's the link

I bought it locally and you can imagine...those are 12lb bags and i have a 7 ft tank...it took a few bags (6 to be exact).
A bit pricey but the plants are doing great so it was worth it.

What a wopper

It will look smashing when the plants full out.

my only sujestion is make your self a hood to finish it all off, it lets your fab setup down

Thanks fishykisses, I'm just about to order a 5ft tank, not quiet up to your beasty tank but you've captured the look im after. Im UK based so im going to try and find it over here, looks like 4 bags should do me so shouldn't hurt the wallet tooo much

I just found this pic of when i started the tank 6 months ago. I can't believe it's only been 6 months, it feels like i've had it for years!
