The glass stand is such a crazy design. It just takes the aquarium to another level.
It is, i was never sure about them until i started looking at the full systems. Hiding equipment etc below the tank is always the aim, however when you are choosing the superjet filter you want to be able to see it
I love the glass cabinet now, the tank seems like it is floating and it looks less intrusive in limited space situations.
Absolutely stunning setup
really looking forward watching it evolve.
The one thing that makes me slightly nervous is the branch just sticking around the corner of the wall. I can imagine somebody accidentally brushing against it
Thanks, yeah i know what you mean, they were longer and i broke them off where i could but plan on trimming them with a tool before finished.
Really a very nice scape so far
@Ady34 , of course i expect nothing less from you
Aside from the actual contents of the aquarium, I always enjoy your journals, the surroundings of your tank - furniture etc is always very pleasing and the clean lines and aesthetics of the ada gear as well as the quality, clean scapes you produce really seem at home as part of the room.
just an observation
Ah, really nice of you to say Ryan, i do enjoy making the tanks part of our living space, they are just part of me and our family now, i can't ever imagine not having aquaria within the home. Both my boys have tanks also, my eldest has my first ever planted tank, the Fluval Studio 900, and my youngest has the old Aquanano 40 which had my crystal red shrimp in
I’d half be tempted to leave it hardscape only and not plant it. I think it goes really well with the clean minimalist style of the cabinet.
It’s a beautiful set up, ADA is expensive but when you see the quality of the gear you can understand why.

I had at one point considered simply adding botanicals over the soil areas with floating plants......not tannin stained water though
People that have seen it as it is have said that it looks like a piece of furniture and a really cool feature as it is. Realistically though, i have decided to plant it so that will be the direction
Thanks for all the comments, unfortunately there won't be anything to update for a while now until the superjet filters become available again......then i need to decide on the 150 or the 300 and which lily pipe choice
Cheerio,
