SilverBlade86 Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 So I've decided to tear down my tank. Here are a few pictures to show you how bad it is: So yeah .. I know it's quite bad. But wait. You know those topics where people start out a thread and you have to wait for updates every week to see how the tank is coming along? And at times they forget to update the thread with newer pictures and tidbits? Don't you hate it when that happens? Well this thread isn't going be one of them (sorta). Because I did the teardown 3 weeks ago. This is what the tank currently looks like now: Thanks to all who helped me out with this endeavor. You know who you are. PS: I swear, my water isn't actually green with algae. The water is actually crystal clear. The photos were taken with a 6 year old 2.0 megapixel camera.

Cheesejawa Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 No... tiger barbs? where would you get kribs from??? The new setup is far better, what is the grass like needly plant in the backgound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supasi Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 What are the fish with the stripes right along their bodies? If you read it properly, its says ALONG the body. that would be the kribs. Tiger barbs have vertical stripes. So do the angels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougstark Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 No... tiger barbs? where would you get kribs from??? Probably from the photos of Kribensis which have stripes along the length of their bodies :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverBlade86 Posted August 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 It looks great Are you going to add a background? What are the fish with the stripes right along their bodies? I'm thinking of some kind of background color, not sure what yet at the moment. I plan to have the entire back heavily planted, so the back can't be easily seen. What are the fish with the stripes right along their bodies? Those are Kribs. The picture with the fish poking out of the cave is one of my paired females. She's currently in the cave taking care of maybe 30+ wrigglers. No... tiger barbs? where would you get kribs from??? The new setup is far better, what is the grass like needly plant in the backgound? I bought it under the name "Cypress". I've searched online for ways to propagate it but the only thing that comes up are Cypress trees. :-? Thanks all for the comments. Really proud of this tank.
