m0oks Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Nice tank. Thats alot of water in the sump. Do you have enough space for water to fill in just incase theres a blackout ? Imo you don't need that much gap for water to go under the baffles. If it does the job then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about baffles,first one iv'e built, but it sure does the job thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Eatoff Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Very nice cabinet! I noticed the fish shaped handles, very fine attention to detail. haha! If i were you i'd put a background on there, but thats just me. If you're thinking whiptails, then go discus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 awesome dimentions for a display tank that I have to say though, the lack of a background is letting down how spectacular is really is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 very nice display , and go the royals they are spectacular and if you get them to breed even better as they seem to be in demand , only thing its missing is a background cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heros! Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 Thanks guys was just going to let the back ground turn green with alge,as its very hard to clean there.Like it natural as possible.
