Still have to finish the door but it works great... it's heavy duty for sure!

Here is the stand without a door. Here is a side shot of the tank... Thinking I need more shrimp and a couple more silver dollars. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Yes I built it from scratch... Turned out pretty good since I have no carpentry skills. Still need to finish door and put it on. Here is the link for the stand: http://www.city-data.com/forum/hobbies-recreation/462966-diy-aquarium-stand-lots-photos-first.html Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium...

So I'm not sure what happened to my original intro but hey here I am again. I originally had a 29 gallon hex tank with live plants and fish(obviously). I recently took that tank down because it was a pain to keep clean being so tall. I now have a 29 gallon rectangle tank. Custom built stand...

Just finished it today... Waiting on the rest of my plants. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

How much cleaning does pool filter sand need? Can I just add it to my tank, it has no water at this point? I am waiting on the weather to change so I can dig out my table saw to finish my stand. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Thanks for the info. Been using a HOT canister for a couple years with no sponge... Might make the investment. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Been Here, left and now I'm back! Alrighty... Time to decide on substrate. I currently have black sand in the tank I am shutting down and like the look. I want to keep with sand in my new tank, but don't want to spend a tone of money. I was thinking pool filter sand would do the job. I've read...

Been Here, left and now I'm back! Going to sheet it with 1/2" birch... Then stain it a dark chocolate color. It really doesn't take much skill, just patience! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

My 29 gallon build slowly coming together. 113 LED multi-spectrum light is in the top box behind the tank. I will be using some parts off the 29 gallon hex to save a little cash. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

No. It's flat against the surface. I have two other smaller spots on my columns. It doesn't effect water quality either. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

That rock has been there for 3 years. I believe it's lava rock and I bought it at Petco. Before I placed it in my tank, I soaked the rock for 24 hours as I do with all my decorations. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I've got these red blobs growing in my tank and don't know what they are... Anyone have an idea what they are and how to treat them? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice
