so i have started the tank,black gravel is down and it is BLACK not that grey/dusty looking stuff but a nice deep black, i have cut a square of breeding grass into two triangles (half) and they are in the two front corners,one with an air tube under it so bubbles are flowing up ,then i have a rock formation in the corner and a log in the middle.

still to do:going to get bright green plants to go along the back wall (suggestions please)

i want something really bushy and a really bright green as the breeding grass is bright and looks amazing next to the black gravel.

also im going to get a black backing for the tank and wire my light to it so it ends up as black back ground,black floor,bright green plants and some rockery in there too.

i have the before pic and im just letting the water uncloud before i take the after :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

d.i.y :bounce:

gravel and grass

breeding grass number 2

the log

gravel arrived!!!

how much gravel did you get? if its a 15kg bag can you weigh it? lol

Whats going to be in this tank?

15kg bag did a 90l tank easy with enough left over to do a 20l too :lol: theres about 3cm deep in the 90l.

that tanks ging to have the old fish back in it,pair of breeding kribs,5x breeding gba,1 khuli and a handfull of guppy,its an odd mix but they seem to go with each other well and all come out in different parts or the tank the kribs have the flooor and breeding grass,guppys stay near the top and gba have the rocks...god knows where the khuli goes lol

...god knows where the khuli goes lol

In the gravel, of course!

lol yea i caught him burying himself today,he is so happy now he can actually get in the gravel lol,the other stuff was too heavy for him
