Just read your whole journal end to end, a truly inspiring tank, something very diiferent to anything I have seen before (new to the site so reading some select journals!)

Thank you for having spent the time to document your tanks journey.

What a result from those albino cory eggs!! In shops around me you might pay £3.50 each for them!! Have you kept them?

Hi James,
I kept a few of them as didnt want a mass breeding frenzy in the tank. Currentky have 7 and a few seem to have paired up recently so may have more
 
Just thought I'd finish this journal off by adding that it's got its own little feature in Pfk. It should be in June's issue (April release) or the one after but will be told which one soon. Sadly they wanted to come and do a full readers visit, photographs etc but as the tank has been taken down they just decided to do a quick small feature in a new section of the magazine with a few pictures I already Had (thanks Ian for touching them up a bit) and a few brief questions.
However they're very keen on seeing how the new one goes and may well be a proper visit with that if it goes well.

So just wanted to say a big thanks to Tom for the inspiration for this tank and for everyone's positive comments.... 🙂
 
Great news Alastair and much deserved....look forward to the article 🙂

Nice one Al. Did chat to George once about doing a feature on the bucket but never heard back from the guys at PFK. Really pleased yours will be in it though, I do think this style of tank is a great way of balancing aquascaping with fish needs.

Thanks buddy. Was all your fault anyway mate. I'm surprised yours never went in as it was and is still awesome.
You get a wee mention anyway for the inspiration.
And agree with the balancing out. I said something along those lines in it.
