My new project is underway ...im excited as been planning for ages
I wanted a new tank that fit with the room , its an old 1930,s cottage type semi ive renovated over 30 years , lots and lots of paint stripping
Finally getting it how ive always imagined with all the original stuff kept but with modern bits , the accents in the room are copper ...ive always loved copper , so the fireplace stuff, lights, accents are copper
The tank is finally in place and ready …
75cmx21cmx21cm
light is Chihrios A series with dimmer ….ive modified with copper offcuts off Ebay , glued
Heater will be 2 small under substrate plastic heaters that keep 7 degrees above room temp (constant 60 ish )
Ive used these in my shrimp tanks for 12 months or more
Filter ..very small Evo just to move the water about
substrate will be sand ...plants will be planted in cut-off plant pot bottoms filled with soil and sand capped
Im waiting for the copper brackets to hang the light , with copper picture frame wire
Brackets not arriving for a week or so , so thought I would post the bits ive done and see what you guys think
