Willy Wombat Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Great shots lucifuge - you have a lovely tank. I like your polynesian ornament too. For my own interest - what is the background you are using. Where did you get it? Congrats on the baby jewels. Cheers WW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucifuge Posted July 28, 2004 Author Share Posted July 28, 2004 thanks! behind the physical tank is one of those cheap rolls per meter. Normally they're tacky, but this is jsut rocks and it appears quite dark looking through giving surpisingly good far background perspective. At the back of the inside of the tank are two large "universal rocks"..the latex variety....highly recommnded! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViS Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Great pics and a very nice tank. I love the look of the latex rocks. Had me fooled! I was going to ask how the hell you lowered the big one into the tank, but then I read that it was a fake. I'd love to do a tank inside as a display, but no room unfortunately....

catcher Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 Beautiful job Lucifuge, Love the Easter Island figure where did you get it? Don't tell me Easter Island please!! It's a good feeling when you complete something that turns out so well, congrats! glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novafishy Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 cool photos...all the best with the jewels!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucifuge Posted August 4, 2004 Author Share Posted August 4, 2004 The Easter Is figurine came from a lock Bates Paradise. Its only about 15cm tall. You can get a larger one, but the iditos decided to make the figure "smile" when they dont smile...so not very realistic. Fish: 4 mainganos 4 electric yellows 3 Jewels 1 Frontosa 1 Blue peacock 3 Blue Acaras 1 Princess(?) Cichlid 1 large Bristlenose (somewhere in the tank!!) ...others i might be forgetting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
