oh sweet, didn't realize you converted to halides. been thinking of doing so myself! nice!

I've been thinking about doing this for a while, but I just don't want those halides in the house again. I have about 5 (mogul based) halides siting in the garage just for the occasion.

Looks good. I like the mangrove filter.

+1 on that! I need me some of those!!! Where'd you get that plastic plate?

[ddaquaria]

like the nitrate absorber...

upgraded a few items.... color looks like crap due to 10k MH bulbs that are awaiting replacement in favor of 8000k's






mangrove filter

Actually it was in my betta cube but after fighting him he died so the plants needed to be put somewhere till I got rid of it.

[J-WS6]

I see. Was it for the trophs to graze on? or just for aesthetics?

[eklikewhoa]

It's actually Java fern but have since removed it.

Are those little bunches of anubias in the rock scape?

[eklikewhoa]

Yeah I saw that one.

[jeebus]

Its the setup he changed to after the pots.

[eklikewhoa]

I haven't seen it lately but did see it when he first did it so if it's the same then I've seen it.

Have you seen Dan's Front/Lab tank in the in the back? The first thing I thought when I saw that was that it dwarfed the fish and looked very cool.

Breeding has never been a factor in the rockscape but in none has it hindered breeding any.

Since I moved them (first of Nov.) I have pulled about 70 fry.

Next scape will probably depend on what rocks I am able to find but I know I want something that will dwarf the fish to make the tank look bigger... also I have plans for a 10ft so the rocks will need to fill that tank as well.
