Just bought some bog wood and rock. Tried to take some pictures but as I dont have tank lights in yet, the flash reflected too much and didnt show anything. Not putting lighting in yet otherwise will just have to take them back out to plant it. So on thursday I should have it all done and ready for photos.
 
Looking forward to thursday!

Don't make the same mistake I did and put your substrate in too flat. I regret doing that the most. Wish I'd bough a second bag and really raised the back up some more. Oh well.
 
$1300 USD???

LOL, try changing that too a £ sign and adding a few more hundred...

Guess thats about $3200 USD ish.
 
$3200??? DAMN? I could get my car repainted, a supersharger, new engine!!!
Thats quite a bit for a tank, however drool worthy it is! I'm jealous!
 
I've been diddled by the delivery again, how annoyed am I.
Now they've said ill get them tomorrow, but im not holding my breath.
So now thats two weeks i've been waiting and i've paid for it and nothings turned up.
They say they are lost in Holland somewhere.
Dont see how they cant be moaning either cause they have none to sell in the shop them selfs for the last two weeks!!!!!!!!!

Theres 4 lumps of bog wood, the lump on the left is actually two pieces that nicely slotted together. The peice on the right is huge, it was so heavy, which ment so expensive, but really loverly bit I had to buy. They let me have all the pieces out of their tanks so they wont leech any tanins.

Not too keen on the sowrds across the back but I had so many I had to put them in, I had to get rid of loads as it was. Still, hopefully they will grow different sizes.

Just need to top up the water level a little then just wait for it to finish cycling, levels are dropping off now, so its almost there.

CO2 level was good before I put the plants in, so just a case of stabalising it now the plants are in there over the next few days/weeks.

Apart from that im pretty pleased with the out come for now, but im sure to change things, im terrible for that lol.

Pics look good, but it does look a little better in real, it all stands out better. I think having the water level low is letting too much light out and messing the photo up. Ill have another go once its full another day.

Cheers Mark....
 
Looks a little too symmetrical for my taste, but awesome tank none the less.
 
If the swords don't grow to different sizes you can trim em to different sizes. ;) ;) ;) ;)


The tank looks amazing!! I hope our tank looks half that good when we finally get everything for it!! How many WPG do you have?
 
Works out at around 1.6WPG. But the underside of the hood it bright white, so that works as a good reflector as well.
 
Hmm...Adrian Monk would love that tank, nice symmetry.

And I love it too...:)
