Some ground work and major digging.

I can finally see! It's awesome. You have a great eye for aqua scape and beautiful fish! I still haven't found the drift wood i want to rescape my community :-( but I'm starting to think of what to do with a 75 lol

thats one thing i wish i could have afforded to do was black sand and your tank looks great. btw all your pics were visable for me and they looked awsome.

Thanks!! A lot of hard work.

I got a 45 and a 125

A 725 or a 1150 I think would work fine

Really? Hmmmm... Same sand? I have a power head also to help keep debris etc from settling on the substrate.

Looks good!! I'm still busting my head on how I want mines to look & at a stand still waiting for the wet/dry issue that came busted.

I added the koralla I got with the 130g just two days ago to the 50g & holy cow I thought I did a great job cleaning the tank all the time and was I wrong. I I ran it for about 15min & looked good, but too strong at 750gph & didnt want the little guys swimming against the current all the time. I will get a another not so strong, but it does the job! I will run for 5mins each day till i get a lower gph

Thanks!! Take your time is the best advice I can give you. Also when aqua scaping its all about perspective. Our brains are trained to see things in patterns or with reason and symmetry. I say focus on the imperfections and chaos. You'd be surprised at what can be accomplished when you let all we are taught go by the way side
