Welcome to AA. That is a great looking tank. How about some details to go along with the picture.

Sweet setup!!! I love a naturally arranged planted tank.

Welcome aboard.

Very natural. Looks nice. I would like one like that some day.

What kind of lighting do you use? From the profile of the canopy Im guessing Powercompact or VHO.

Hi I am new to AA too I have a 150 gal Planted tank dose any one have a good plan for a canopy or a DYS co2 system


your tank looks grate I just started mine I have a good chunk of Java moss and some large amazon sords so far so good though I think I need a bit more Light but I want to make a canopy first.

Lovely tank, welcome to Aquarium Advice.

Man those discus do look small. Great tank though. Really cool.

wow. wish i had a 135. how well does the mbu live with everybody else? how long has this tank been set up? is that a newer amazon sword towards the middle? those look like emerse grown leaves on it. keep up the good work.

zuppie, search around the internet with google and maybe the diy forums for info for building a canopy. as for diy co2, your tank is WAY to big for it not too be a pain in the butt. most people go pressurized at around 30 gallons.

thanks tyler



My sord tales had babies last night

You really dont need a lot of info to make a canopy, I drew up my own plans and everything for mine. I think you will have to get a CO2 tank and regulator for a tank that big, unless you want about 10 2 liter bottles under the tank.
