Aye as TDI said that don't apply to me as i'm in Greece :( I'm gonna start looking around every time i go to the beech for driftwood and/or rocks. If i soak em and clean em well does it matter that they come from salt water? Cheers Mark

:lol: Just tried those £38 for the order £80 n delivery :lol: That's the problem, if i order plants there's no guarantee they'll arrive in good nick, if i order anything even remotely heavy i get screwed over on the postage :evil: Cheers Mark

Wowwwoo weee waaaa Some fantastic setup's there, i reallyyyy like jimbooo's tank and james3200 tank looks amazing. 2 more scapes that i really liked are these 2. Problem i've got though is size James tank is 800L and Jim 450L. When i tried moving things over to 1 side to free some room...

Aye i know where ya coming from. I was worried about circulation as well, i did a bit of a test at feeding time with some shrimp eggs, they did seem to circulate the whole tank before the Ras ate em :) No idea where to go next, it's only ever going to be a home tank for the family to enjoy...

07-03-08. Managed to find time to chop up and get the other wood to fit. It's still floating just off the substrate so the position isn't exact yet, plus i need to move round a few plants and trim some (cheers ceg ;)) As i say in a couple of weeks the on-the-side filter will come off and...

Great tip thanks :) I find it really odd how it progressed from being an environment that i believed was healthy and comfortable for the fish. To an environment which IS actually comfortable and health for the fish, AND looks a hell of a lot better. Cheers Mark

:lol: Cheers guys. The ship is under the tank in the cabinet if your interested? :wink: :lol:

Bit of a journey in 3 months. As i guess everybody here i wish i knew then what i know now. I also wish i'd done more homework and reading up as well. Future plans? After another 3 weeks or so the internal filter will go, i'll use that time to replace the substrate, i saw some Seachem Flourite...

01-03-08 Bought a Eheim 2026 external filter, couldn't resist a few Albino Corydoras, i know i'm overstocked now, but the fish seem very healthy and lively, i'll just need to keep on top of the water changes. 06-03-08 Bought some wood t'other day and a few shrimp to help with the clean up. Me...

15-02-08 Removed the sunken ship :) Still a couple of fake plants in there though :( Cheers Mark

13-02-08 Few more fish and plants, got sooooo pissed off with the background i removed it and painted it black. Cheers Mark

20-01-08 Few Corydoras and Halequin Rasboaras added, as were a few more real plant and a sand substrate (on top of the gravel) the Goldfish went to a good home. Cheers Mark

11-01-08 4 days later a Goldfish found it's way into the tank along with a couple of REAL plants and terrible background that wouldn't stick. Cheers Mark

Well i've been asking advice for a while now and recieved some great answers, so i thought it about time i showed you guys what me tank looked like. I'll show a few photo's as it went through it's transformation. So we bought a complete setup from a large supermarket on 04-01-08. It came with...
