So we have never really had a tank journal, we are spontaneous we want a tank well just go and buy everything for it that day. But this one we are doing slowly for now. All our rock is dried rock form an dried up ancient reef 50 pounds and seeding it with about 10 from our current tank.

As for equipment

Tank 25x25x20

There was a nice green carpet for sale at Blue world a few days ago.

I love the set up so far, looks like it will be a pretty cool tank when it's done.

We are going to probably get another one if i pull one out of the display it changes the wave alot. Well after you came and fixed that plug i ended putting a gfi plug there anyways. The painting turned out fairly nice ran out of paint halfway on the grey.

Thanks guys i still need to finish the corner but i think it turned out ok, something different. Don't like all the equipment in the tank or on the back, thinking of getting a overflow and sump or maybe just live with it.

Thanks i have been lucky for with the two carpets in that small of a tank. With no flow that giganta opens to about 16" across so he is growing quick. I have to run carbon and a lot of it or else the tank goes cloudy. I would imagine this is the carpets fighting.
