What Do You Think?

[Fadi]

Ok so about a month ago i posted about my tank and i got alot of suggestions...

Here is what it looked like a month ago...

I got alot of helpful tips and came to this about 2 weeks ago..

Now I have just about finished up the tank....

Tell me what you guys think and I will take all suggestions...

thats alot better than before but i have two constructive (edit: well, its kind of three) pieces of critisism, (hope you dont mind)
firstly, i would change the gravel to a natural kind, or maybe even sand, its up to you, but personally i would keep it natural.
secondly, i dont quite know how to explain this, but the layout of the plants has no real structure to it, and its all a bit sparse, so maybe getting more plants and grouping them together a bit more may help. Plus, they are artificial plants arent they? what are your reasons for going arificial and not real? i know real plants are not practical for everybody but it might be something to consider in the future because i can see that your tank could really benefit from it.
But yeah, youve done a great job and its really good.

sorry but i think you need to hide the tubes with more plants and change the gravel.

but i like the bogwood, i just got a piece on a smaller scale for one of my mini tanks.

 

[ajbettle]

yh definetly hide the air tubing..it distracts you into looking at that..maybe like geo7x said...you should group plants up into one space and i think you should put the airsones near eack other to give like a bubble effect from one area near your bogwood, but you have done very well changing it! keep it up!

looks so much better!

The gravel is so distracting from the fish. Why dont you get natural gravel?

Some real plants would be nice too.

Good otherwise!

I think move air tubing to the centre where your filter uptake is. Then put loads of long plants at the back in the centre to cover them up. Move your thermometer to the side of your tank and your fry tank to the end aswell. You do really needs a stack more plants as well.

Good luck

I agree don't like the gravel at all, but i funny about my gravel.

 

[Fadi]

well i was wondering then how much would it cost to put sand in my tank??

Also could it work with the filters that i have?? wouldn't the filters suck up the sand???

 

[Qays]

I would go for gravel, but sand is also good. it depends on where you get it from.

I also suggest you put your thermometer in the corner, i dont know why its in the middle...

play sand from B and Q is £4 for 25 kg

 

[Ginge]

Wont need that much but you can get 15Kg for £2 at argos. If you put on a blck background then you can also hide that green wire an also put the heater virtical and to the side.

hey guys thanks for the comments. I was wondering if sand was ok with the filter i have. Wont the sand get sucked up into the filter like other wastes? I am not willing to change my filteration method.

 

[Fadi]
