How did you get the rocks somewhere in the middle of the tank?


I like some of the fish in your last tank.

Mine looks like this

fake caves but real plants

my 30g looks almost the same minus the plants

nice frontosa mine is a hybrid between two species. it killed a smaller one i bought to keep it company.

as for the rocks, i wanted a diy background. not wanting to go w/ styrofoam and then applying layers of cement and coloring it in i went w/ reall rocks. i took three pieces of acrylic that would cover my back wall and double sided taped a black bg to the acrylic. i then drilled holes through the acrylic and the rocks and held them w/ those plastic expansions you use for screws and some epoxy. i added more rocks so they don't look like they are just floating anymore.

Nice looking tanks. When are they going to become reefs?

well my 40br is on hold(only has LS). i plan to move soon so i don't want to keep stocking. everything is in the 30g which will be the sump for the 40br. the 55g still has FW inhabitants so as soon as i get rid of my FW fishes and get the new apt the ball will start rolling. hopefully in 2-3 months.

i would love to make the 155g bow a reef but that would be way over my budget.
