jaydsl's 150g tank

[jaydsl]

ok now time to add rock

i had some caves in mind , and overhangs

i think i got it with my pipe work

[jaydsl]

now to put all the water back , it has been in garbage cans with heat and power heads for 2 days

it was nice to get it filled again and drain my old 55g

[jaydsl]

my cucumber




nice piece of rock , i will get a better shot in normal lite tomorrow

Very interesting pictures. I really like the aquascaping and what you're doing with the extra flow. Looks good.

i had someone suggest that to me after seeing my pvc substructure. I thought it was a really cool idea. You may want to think about the placement of the power head that feeds the pvc. I cant tell from the pics if you can get it out easily to clean it? Cool idea and the tank looks good.

Very cool looking tank.
I like the idea of running wather through the pipes to create flow under the rocks.
What is the dimension of the tank?

[jaydsl]

well every thing was going well , every one was happy but woke up this morning and after a year with the cucumber and no probs , this morning i found the cucumber sucked into a temp powerhead and then notices
pepermint shrimp
b/w angel
lawnmower
yellow golby

!DEAD!!

yellow stripe clown
black blenny
still missing

wow after 2 years now i have to start again
now i have to get the mushrooms
frog spawn
toadstool
out and fix this

Sorry to hear about your losses. Cucumbers are cool critters but not worth the risk IMO

How old has the tank been setup? I would imagine the cucumber would starve to death in a bb tank. Tank looks great though! I like the idea of the pipework waterflow too, albeit I've never liked bb.
