Mumma's TV tank build

[Tcal01]

Hasn't been mentioned
The tanks already set up and been running 6months or so. It's got 7 neon tetras, juvie albino bn pleco, mystery snail, 5 kuhli loaches and a Betta. So far the plan is just to keep them but I might do some fish/tank swapping and move something else in.

I'm diggin the 3d background

Oh my word mumma. Your aquascaping skills is awesome. Looks so peaceful. And do you have a male betta in there or a female?

 

[daileene]

And yes, the 3d background just adds beauty to the whole thing. Great job.

Thank guys
I have a Betta that was bought as a female but turned out to be a male plaket.







Not the best pics but he NEVER sits still lol.

 

[daileene]

Ohhhh he is beautiful. So i am guessing he doesn't bother the neons then. They all look so good together.

He'll briefly chase one occasionally but has never hurt one. He grew up with them so I guess he's use to them.

This is such a fantastic idea. I am really excited to see how it turns out.

Thanks! Yeah I bought it at petstock. Was $30-$40 I think. They had 3 different styles but only one size. I have seen larger ones in other stores though.

I was skeptical when I first got it. It looked pretty dodgy out if the tank. Lol

I've cleaned up the switches and stuff on the front. They where caked in dust and grime. That's about it. going to start gutting it Saturday if time permits.

I can't wait to see how this turns out. So cool.

Gutted!
It took FOREVER to get the CRT out. The bolts where completely stuck.

Will you look at that bad boy. Great job Elise. You really gutted that baby out. Looks so clean now. I commend you for the great effort.

We bought paint for the inside and started designing the false bottom to bring the tank up to the right level. Not very exciting but, hey, it's an update
