my tank (restarted)
« on: June 25, 2009, 12:41:21 AM »
so here it is after surviving algae attack.. i put a 25 gallon tank under my
75 gal tank to provide home for my eel, damsel (black with neon blue stripes) and my trigger fish.. beside the DIY sump.











my tank connected to the tank under it, same water supply.. beside fresh water tank (not connected), with my flower horn

and under it was a fresh water hammer head, bout 1 and half feet long and a knife fish..

greater aquarium comes greater responsibility...

thanks... have u ever felt that while designing rocks you felt like mental block? it took some days doing this and doing that before coming to the right stuff..

Looks good Choii!, are some of those stuff you have caught yourself? I know freashwater fish can survive in small aquariums but just curious on the last pic if that is their constant home or if they are getting a bigger one? Rockwork can be a chore I tell ya haha.
Looks good.
What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss

I do too!  I'm thinking of getting one with the upgrade, but I'm worried about the whole "reef safeish" thing...  If I do get one... I shall name him "Butch."  That's a "Butch" if I ever knew a "Butch." :D

sir hoss!=) most fish i caught doesnt live long in my tank... but yes their all from the wild.. the sides of the Phillipines were really abundant..
bout the last pict.. yeah hard to say but they grew there... it cracked 3 aquariums already so i have to put it in a smaller one... i'm working for their new home... its not yet done but soon will be... that fish was already 12 years old.. and i had it when i was eleven... i'm not really good at designing ponds... but i also had a rock work on the pond... haha!

its about 2-3 ft tall.. bout 7-8 feet wide..

just beside our house...

that trigger is 2 years with me already... its harmless on corals... but it really dominates smaller and light colored fish... so before i put a new fish in my tank, i have to remove the trigger first and put it back again as soon as the new fish establishes its territory... one thing... the trigger really has its own home under the rocks..
