Thanks for letting me share.

Looks very nice Tim. Too bad it'll be torn apart when I get there later. I'd like to see it complete & running.

I wish they would just swim into the net ... it sure would make this a lot easier !!!
I'm about ready to take a video of all the fish with all the decorations and plants out. Then I'll do another one once it's all back together.

It's a great looking tank.

Tim what kind of camera did you use to shoot those pictures? Great looking tank with plants.

Nothing really spectacular ... a Nikon D5100 Digital SLR with a 50mm f2.8, with ISO 1000 and exposure of 1/80s and NO flash, which I've found is much better for fish shots. I also make sure I have a ton of ambient lighting, although, I didn't use any extra lighting.
Thanks for kind words !!!

What type of plant is that, and where did you get it?

Really nice setup..:)

Sorry for not responding earlier ... I was out of commission since the 10th (long story).
Anyways is a type of Anubias, but I can't remember which one. This where I purchased them from and their Anubias ... http://www.aquariumplants.com/Anubias_s/26.htm (http://www.aquariumplants.com/Anubias_s/26.htm)
I hope this helps.
All the best !!!

Beautiful. I like to do a planted take some day. How hard is vacuuming the substrate with live plants.

I don't know about him but Anytime I try it took the plant with it so I stopped and just did huge water changes with out gravel vacuuming and they are growing like weeds. :)

I would imagine you could move them? Just didn't know if they could be up-rooted all the time?

Here's my 2 cents worth ... I really don't vacuum at all, which may be sacrilege, but it seems to give the plants good fertilizer and they generally do grow like weeds. Also, I wouldn't move them too often (I do once every 6 months to remove fish) since it hurts the little fibers on the roots ... I can't remember what the fibers are called.
Thanks ...
