Hi Graham,
I have been busy since first posting trying to source materials and glean ideas from this forum and from as many sources as I could lay me eyes on. My goodlady in the mean time has threatened to murder both me and any other DHL, UPS or any another person possible coming to the house with anything tank,plant of fish related. Here are a few photos of the nealry empty tank. As you can see I have been messing around with some stone I got from Aqua Essentials.
Richard in Aqua Essentials was of great help to me in selecting the hardscape which includes Mountain Rock and some mini landscape rock. Plant wise I am still undecided what type of carpet I am going to use. Due to the height of the tank I may use some tall or very tall vallis in the background. Decisions ? It will take me a while to finalise the layout of the hardscape to my satisfaction. Hopefully I can get some help along the way. In the meantime Lily pipes are on the way, clear pvc pipes and external heater are also organise for my fluval 405. I hope the divorce is cheaper than the tank
Slowly but surely it will come together with a lot of help. Now that I have the hang of posting pictures you may watch this space. Thanks to all the forum members who have passed on information,pictures and suggestions. Keep them coming..
Cheers,
John
