Vinnie Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 So started last week bit by bit setting up our 850L tank So far.. Yet to work out lighting and stocking. Decided the Fire eel will get his own tank for now and get something better once I've built the fishroom Got plants growing in another tank and waiting on some plants for the setup. Will update once there in :happy1: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinnie Posted February 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Here are those photo's you asked for dattofish All the bracing is 10mm, and about 60mm wide apart from the 2 middle ones like in pic 2. Nice wood!! Cheers David, I can't wait to have most of it covered in plants for that extra look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David R Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Hope you're not going to hide too much of is!! I guess that means you've moved the uaru on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnie Posted February 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 I'm waiting to cover about 40% of the wood, mainly one of the big stumps and the two middle bits. for the rest dwarf sag and cript around it. Uaru's are in there own tank at the mo but will probably sell them soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F15hguy Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 gorgeous setup... can't wait to see fully done.... is it cloudy water or just camera problems??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godly3vil Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 wood looks really good but if I may say personally I would take a saw to those big root like pieces and make them sit level, would look much better imo dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F15hguy Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 disagree, they look natural the way they are as if you cut them you would have an unnatural straight edge. looks kinda like a drowned forest imo only thing is maybe move them apart so the tops don't clash with each other.

Vinnie Posted February 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 wood looks really good but if I may say personally I would take a saw to those big root like pieces and make them sit level, would look much better imo dude I thought about that ages ago but didn't like how everything would sit in order. I get what you mean, but with how I'm wanting it to look in a year with the plants, mainly the 3 stumps on the left hand side is why I've left it that way. Thanks for the input though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
