Its new, but nothing new really.
I have had this tank since April 2011 and ive been waiting ever since for the damn stand to be built. Hey ho.
I am pretty tired getting this all set up over the last couple of days, so this will be a shortish post.
I thought id post a few pics, it is no amazing aquascape, but i always like to see new journals on here so maybe others do too.
First and foremost this is to be a planted home for a sub set of the rainbowfish I keep. No biotope, the fish dont care, just plants that I thought might be nice.
So quick tech run down:
The tank is acrylic. I find that in large tanks this material beats glass on many fronts.
dimensions: 115 x 82 x 75 ( i seem to like weird tank dimensions ).
Lighting: LED lighting (Pacific Sun Metis).
Filtration: Eheim 2180
Circulation: Vortech MP10 ( maybe add another when I can afford it)
substrate: ADA Amazonia, dennerle and unipac black sand/gravel, tropica.
CO2: injection via TMC1500 diffuser
UV: Vectron 600
Hardscape: Tom's wood and boulders/pebbles.
Anyway...
Ok, good night.
