qft!

Someone was up really late last night getting the first aquascape just right. After watching for a few hours for any signs of life (and finding none) the same idiot decided to shift a rock. Well I got to bed at 4am after totally redoing the 'scape and I have like 4 rocks to worry about.

Doug the lid you let me scape on is bigger than my tank! Yeah these rocks looked monstrous in there and my plans had to change (twice).

Things I noticed about small tanks:

1) It's awesome how they're small and you can really focus your efforts into that space
2) It sucks HARD how they're small and nothing really fits or works

In the end my second scape looked a little less unique/cool than the first but made better use of the light with the slope upwards to the back. I tried to stay off the back wall but the space is 20x20x20 so I did what I had to.

I'm pretty sure the lights should be off but I'm running them anyways since I am the LEAST patient person in the world and need to stare at my lifeless tank LIT =)

Can't wait to see what fishy's you pick. :wink:

I'm a pretty simple guy fish-wise plus the tank IS small.

Fish I like:

Blennies - Tail spot, Lawnmuncher, Bicolour
Baby got Dottyback
Bangin' Cardinals
Royal Grandma
Chromis Dime-a-dozenus
Black 'n White Percs

All pretty basic but I'm sure I'll just SEE fish I want and then...buy them. So my list may be based more on what I happen to see. Leah I'm NOT patient!

or a shark! some just lay on the bottom...:rolleyes:

Glad to see your back josh.

Tank is looking great by the way. love the slope

Looks fine, although to be honest, what I mean to say is I can't really see beyond that orb, but I'm sure the rockwork or whatever that's underneath it is fine.

I think that orb would fit over my head really well..

Tony your jealousy is cute. Although I suggest you cut it out before I c-bag you. C is for chaeto foo.

On a serious note anyone HAVE some pods in chaeto I could have? I have eyes like a hawk and this rock is podless.
