I just added the driftwood. Big difference!!

Oh, that looks pretty cool - is almost like it's one single piece that broke in half

We switched all ours to sand and we love it!

Ohhh I see what you mean. Bc the lines both kinda flow into each other.

And yeah I'm gonn add a couple more live plants to make it look better and balance it out.

And yeah!! I'm gonna switch my other tank now too

That looks awesome, have you thought of putting a back ground on so you don't see the cords behind it? I got a solid black one on mine

Yeah I'm considering it. Idk if I want a natural one or solid black. I'm leaning more towards black but I just don't know yet

[alex07]

looks sweet with the drift wood! i need to try that bottle trick in my other 55g. I have a lot to do in that tank..... if only i have known! hahahahaah

Congrate on a great switch!

That looks great. I am going to set up a 2.5 gallon shrimp tank and I think I will be using sand. Does sand work ok with a sponge filter?

Thanks. But yeah its a lot of work....clearing out the gravel. And then you're gonna have to fill up the bottle many times. Buy a funnel it helps.

And as for the sponge filter I do not know. I've never had one

Yah I bought one of those battery operated vacs from petco....soo I just use that. Makes it easy and I don't have to do a pwc to clean
