Nice little set-up . still got the rams?

Welcome

:cophot: GL with Spawn

I normally breed guppys properlly, remove the weak etc, keep seperate strains in seperate tanks, at this stage this tank is for looks, these guppys are a few mixed strains so it would be pointless trying to prevent them from breeding. I will probably just let them do their thing, if it gets two crowded i can allways remove some.

ah okay, ive never had issues with my java fern, most tanks i look at alwlays just have it planted as normal. cheers for the info

Thanks :) :) :dnc1:

Hey Everyone, I have allways wanted a planted feature tank. I used to have 17 tanks set up for breeding last year but we had a house fire and lost all of the fish due to no power and no water supply, tanks broke and other issues that arose around the fire. I have now setup a tank in my room, its 4ft long and roughly 350L. It is my first attempt at a nice tank like this, i think it is looking pretty awsome. its a start so feel free to let me know if im doing it wrong/things to improve Most plants i got for free thanks to SamH and a few friend's who held on to my plants/fish while i got my house back together. Also got a heap of plants from Sophia so thanks heaps. Plants: Lots of ambuila along the back, Java moss on driftwood, Java fern along the front, Twisted val, Some swords and a few other plants. Fish: Mainly male guppys (Snakeskin, Albino, lots of blondes,whites and reds), 1 x Red Spot Pleco, 1 x Male Bristlenose Pleco, A few swordtails and plattys also. Ferts and Substrate: The bottom is 2/3rds sand then a layer of API Laterite and then another layer of sand over the top. I am currently adding some Flourish Excel untill i get my c02 all set up and a bit of Flourish Iron to help with the plants that are in need of some help. Here are a few photos:

WoW , i would love to purchase one or two of these, i am looking at getting some discus for my tank but not too keeen on taking the risk with such nice discus as im a complete novice to discus and i hear they are tempremental.

That is a good point, make sure the trailer has springs otherwise if you hit a large bump or two their is a good chnce of it cracking.

hehe welcome!!

talking about daylight savings.. i turned up 1 hour early to work today hehe..

Hey,,, Just curious to what everyone feeds their guppys to get the best colours etc.. I have been feeding mine NLS Colour enhancing flakes, what about you? Cheers.

Ouch! i can relate to loosing a lot of fish, last year i lost my 4-5k worth of fish due to a fire. Feel for you! :love:

WOW! Such a awsome tank Karina! This is what i am aiming my tank to look like , i just set up a 350L tank and would only dream mine turns out like yours. Is this tank still going strong?

Wow, very nice, can't wait to get my tank all planted this weekend

Hiding is normal for them
