    Novice Looking For Advice - On a tight budget

    Its pretty small, only 60l so one fizzy drinks bottle should be great. It will mean less stuff to hide :D Is this the type of ladder you meanhttp://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260241050439 ? Thanks James

    Thanks all, I'll get looking for some statues that look inert and then test them when I get them home. If they turn out not to be suitable they can have a nice place in the back garden :) I found this on Ebay and wondered how it worked, I've never seen a product like this before...

    Nice ;) Thats a real inspiration that I dont need to spend loads to have a great looking tank! I'm currently confusing myself about installing the lighting. I'm sure it can't be that hard, but I'm having trouble finding twin lighting units that accept a lamp that are 44cm long.

    I'm not to sure about making my own CO2 system, I can't see my parents going for the idea. I think I'll try a DIY Yeast based system or perhaps the CO2 Optimat. Have any of you had experiences with that? Thanks James

    Thanks for your great replies. I'm gonna read through the links, and plan out exactly what I'm going to buy. I think I will go for the more expensive stuff aquasoil or flora base, because hopefully it'll be worth it in the long run.
