Martyb Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Hey guys Finally got a new tank, its a 6x2x.2.5. Im absolutely stoked!!!! Filtration is a sump which is pictured below. This is going to be the first thing people see when they walk into my home so I was wanting some Ideas on how to make it the best display tank ever!!!!! Little things that people have done and thought of before it is too late to change. I have purchased black gravel and I am putting a dark blue background. The fish that are going in are my 7 x 7bar Frontosa, 7 x Dolphins, 7 x Cuckoo Catfish, 7 x Julidochromis Ornatus. Dont ask me how I ended up with 7 of each it just happened to be like that. The frontosa are a decent size and the dolphins aren't far off. Please give me feedback on what you guys think and any tips that you may have. I really want this to be a fantastic setup with no hastle. thanks in advance marty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCB Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 put some doors at the bottom to cover sump I agree - this makes such a difference! and will draw all the attention to your fish (even if your are justifiably proud of your sump ) In regards to the backdrop - you could consider making it yourself if buying enough for your tank would be too costly.
