thats some crazy rock stacking. Awesome tank! fish avatar
yeah i had 30 guppies in their for the last few days - i was just testing the ph and making sure they would survive.... left one in and took the rest out - didnt want to keep them so they are now free in a friends pond.... im just trying to find some natural rock and then im still not sold on natural or fake plants..... dont you have to add carbon if you have real plants?? im fully just in the learning stages... :) fish avatar
oh i like your tank man - so regarding the balla sharks in a 29 gallon - do you honestly think 2 would be too much a close friend of mine is a breader in australia and he said it was border line too small but they would only grow large enough to match the size of the tank...... i dunno but i do appreciate your input :) fish avatar
