Re: Tank Pictures

JB i meant to say it in previous post but I really like the fact that you are using some macro in your display tank it make it more natural feeling I think

Re: Tank Pictures

Thanks...you know, I wasn't sure how I would feel about it, but after I received the rock from TBSW and it had the natural caulerpa on it and after I looked at it for a while I liked it...I'm definately going to keep it trimed up, but I like how it accents the tank...need to find some plastic surgical snips or something

Re: Tank Pictures

Your tank looks great. The water looks so clean. Love the green that you left. It give the tank character.

Re: Tank Pictures

You can use stainless steel utensils for your tank, but like Ryan said, don't leave them in the water.

Re: Tank Pictures

Thanks for that information Bifferwine, I would have never thought I could use something like that. I definately wouldn't leave them anywhere near my tank and would be in and out as soon as possible if I knew it wasn't going to hurt anything.

Re: Tank Pictures

Now just save that pic and after a year take another pic and do the before and after. Its crazy how a tank will mature in a years time and will look so much different. Are you going to let coraline grow on the back glass? Thats what I am in the process doing, I like the look of coraline in the the back. Good looking tank.

Re: Tank Pictures

Nice looking tank, looks so clean! I was down where I'm going to be going to school next semester checking out the fish stores there a few weeks ago. One of the places had a saltwater tank with lots of plants/macro growing in it, and it was so crystal clear I couldnt believe it, I couldnt find a suspended particle in the water. What I'm getting at is, do the plants clean the water significantly??
