Revamped Tank, The Way I Want It

[chelbel]

Hi guys, I've not posted for awhile

The other half let me design the tank the way I want it

Well I did it a few weeks ago and want you opinions on the layout, no about the plants cos these were only temp until the other half sorted the other tank

I cannot take pics at the moment of how it is now cos we've just discovered my new Angels have spawned on some silk plants I must have done something right

I have taken over on this tank and the stats have stayed stable

i think the fact taht you have a sand corner is very interesting..

thanks for sharing

 

[~T~]

It has potential.

Thanks, I wanted something different and once I'm happy I'll be adding cory's hence the sand corner

It looks very built up with plants (most of the silk at the mo ) but it's getting there

The Plant you have in the last pic isn't aquatic it will slowly start to rot .I'd remove it asap to avoid an ammonia spike

Looks Great Though

GoodJob

Yeah, gravel can damage their barbels and make them ill and all sorts if its sharp.

It's easier to feed them on sand I think because I see where the pellets etc are going

My other halfs last lot adored the sand (the tank was all sand a few years ago) they also has smooth rocks to bath on and a cave to hide in

I got another tank

I'll post pics over the next few days

I have had them before and they lasted a good 4 months in a tank with sand as substrate, just keep an eye on them.
Looks good.
