Will snap some pics when everything is open and enjoying some LED lighting. I made sure to match the light levels for the most part from my buddy's LFS, but started a bit lower to acclimate. |
Use the very top choice "direct link" on photobucket, and paste it into the "insert image" box (the second from the last icon just above the text box).

I do use direct link and do copy/paste. There's no insert image box. Certain reason you're telling me this? Not at all trying to sound ride Mr X, didn't know if the pics didn't show up or not...?? |
Flaxon....I really like your aqua scape! I like the multiple mounds and caves scattered. After seeing your return I think I want to set my up like that and not drill for a return. I'm getting a eheim compact 3000 for my current40 build as well. How's the initial thought? First time buying eheim.

Thanks! I use the Eheim compact plus 3000. Very quiet, and also adjustable. Takes 3/4" plumbing as well (if I remember correctly). And yes, don't drill the return if you don't need to, which on a rimmed tank is not needed. I just ran soft plumbing to a dual loc line return. Was very easy to set up. Actually, none of my plumbing is PVC, it's all flexible...
I switched things up a bit, Here's a new scape pic... http://i1295.photobucket.com/albums/...psc9nlkhw2.jpg |
