Keegan013 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Setup: 6X2X2 Tank with stained cabinet and pelmet Filtration: Fluval Fx5, Eheim 2217, Otto 2000lph Internal, 3000lph blower Lighting; 1 x 6 foot Slim t5 Fitting, 2 blue 2 white tubes Substrate: Smooth small sized black gravel (More greyish) Stocking: 2 Barramundi, 2 Archerfish, 2 Golden Tandanus, 1 Black Tandanus, 1 Motoro Sting Ray The Tank Cabinet and Hood will be for sale as soon as I have my 8 foot and everything will go straight onto that tank, And I will have sand for the ray not the gravel. The gravel in the tank now is really smooth and small and the ray is perfectly fine, Not aggression in this tank as yet. Touch wood. .

Samantha Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 as said by a great man "we want to make a beautiful aquarium, not have a picture of one behind it" He wanted a plain black background but the 3 lfs he went to the day of set-up didn't have any long or wide enough, so unfortunately this was the next best thing.

It is such a pain hey. I went to four just to find a plain black background for one of mine once. None of whom had any in stock. Only the tacky background ones What is with LFS not stocking plain ones or plain ones in the right sizing haha. Tank looks good by the way. A piece or two more of mangrove would look right at home but I am sure you probably cannot due to the ray? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samantha Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 I don't understand it, you'd think they would stock more considering they would be the quickest to go.. Yeah the ray already seems to be silly enough to try swim up the DW, wouldn't want to risk it with more pieces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
