hi guys, OK, so this isn't your typical aquarium type tank but i thought id share with you that you can still have a aquascape in a thin tank as well as a wide tank.
since the last update i have sorted out the blyxa, cleaned glass, pipes etc put a stocking over the inlet as i have had 12 new baby shrimps and purchased 7 rasboras which have coloured up a lovely copper orange.
what do you all think??
cheers

i think you have done an excellent job with the depth

great HC carpet too.

cheers sam the rock size and placement in the width was the hardest part but i pulled it off

That's gorgeous.... I'm just struggling with a 40l aqua-qube, trying to work out a scape that feels right... so very impressed with what you've done on far greater surface area...

what heater do you use?

That looks sweet, respect for doing such a good job with such an unusual tank.

thanks guys, nothing beats relaxing on the sofa watching the fish and shrimp play lol
i use a fluval edge heater on the one side and a newattino heater on the other for winter backup.
the coolest thing of all is i have the filter, x2 heaters and i did have the co2 diffuser in before, oh and the lights + wires and tubes and all is hidden by the small edge around the whole tank so it looks very minimal and contemporary
