Hi Guys,
Just set this 120G (48x24x24) up for freshwater.
The parameters are all ok as i just upgraded from a smaller tank and kept all the media.
I'm not finished with it yet.
I still have to varnish the cabinet. This is a pain but will make it look a lot glossier. It came as unstained pine.
Then I am buying a 'rock wall' background for the back of the tank and the right had side so that it looks like your looking in a cave.
New substrate to allow some plantings. Plus some new lighting.
The plants will only be a few reed types to cover things i don't want seen like the filter intakes so no major lighting or CO2 should be needed.
I have 4 anuibius in there that are growing really well so something must be alright and so far no algae at all.
The fish in the tank are:
14x Neons
4x Silver Dollars
1x Spotted Silver Dollar
4x Clown Loaches
4x Emperor Tetras
5x Balloon Mollies
1x Betta
4x Bristnoses
2x Khuli Loaches
2x Swordtails
1x Rainbow Shark
2x Angels
1x Black Ghost Knife
They all get along really well and the ghost knife has finally started to come out and eat!
Can't wait to get the background, plants and substrate in there!
I'll post more pics when I have it all done.
