Unnatural_Selector Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 I turned to the dark side.. I think it blends well with a black background and makes the fish more prominent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unnatural_Selector Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Yeah, it was half in a muddy creek bank down the back of my dads place... I blasted it with a high pressure cleaner for a fair while first, and it never leached anything! (that I could detect anyway) I know I shouldnt take logs from banks, but it was just too good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajk Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Steve, I love your tank.....................it looks like a tang tank. Am i correct?

ndoboi Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Hi Andrew, That's the only descent pic I have of that tank.. You're right though; it is a tang tank and is currently holding cyps, leleupi, julis and some BNs and L104s. Cheers Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
