African Leaf Fish Tank Build

[GodFan]

Ok I think you should go with the 26 bow front! And in a little bit I will post pictures of all my tanks

I think the bowfront is a good idea. Personally I am not a huge fan of cube tanks because they tend to be in aesthetics, but lower on functionality.
If you want to do a moonlight set-up, I also suggest looking to reptile tank lights. I have seen more dual reptile light set-ups for cheaper, and they fit on the same tanks. That may vary be area, just a suggestion if you wanted to have one unit for all your lights.

Thanks! Im going to look into that!

When you get your tank get a bubbler in it!

Yall ready for an update? Well the tanks are on sale so there is a high possibility that this will be the week!

 

[GodFan]

Well I wont get the fish this week. I will have to special order them...

 

[GodFan]

I havent got it yet. It all comes down to one more thing. Depending on this last thing I will be getting the tank either this week or....... hopefully Christmas lol

 

[GodFan]

I am getting and setting up the tank tomorrow!!!!!!!! Decor suggestions?

Awesome!! I think a large piece of driftwood looks great!



Btw that's not my tank in the pic I just wanted to show driftwood but I wish it was...

Also do sand!

 

[GodFan]

I am using play sand. Hopefully I will run across a nice piece of driftwood....

Have you setup the tank yet?? If so pictures please

 

[GodFan]

I did set up but I am dog tired so pics are coming tomorrow lol. It looks terrible right now though. The tank is actually my old 26 bow. I used the new 25 gallon in my room for my nano fish and it looks amazing!

 

[vanimal]

Ok can you post pictures of both?

 

[GodFan]

Yea. I hate to do this but I worked a long day so tomorrow. Im off tomorrow anyway.

I have a African leaf fish in my 29 gallon. They really enjoy hiding spaces like these sorry I couldn't get good pics of him he just likes to look at me

 

[GodFan]

Awesome russelmartin! Is that an african leaf fish or african bush fish?

 

[Freakgecko91]

Leopard ctenopoma, aka climbing perch, bush fish, spotted perch.

 

[GodFan]

Ok very cool fish but it is not the same kind I am getting. I considered getting one of those but they get to big for my tank. I am getting the Polycentropsis abbreviata.
