Brand New 8 gallon bio cube

[sfin52]

My 75 is a freshwater planted tank. I suppose I could downgrade it to the 29 gallon and use it for the reef...hmm

Down grade to 55 upgrade reef in 75

What the heck? Canadian peer pressure? I didn't even know y'all did that! I'm so proud!

Hey didn't apologize first, doesnt count.

That's pretty!!! My planted tank

 

[SashimiTurtle]

Y'all dont wanna see my "planted" tank... water looks like coffee, but that's slightly on purpose.

Good news, my Apistogramma cacatuoides are breeding.

That comes after I talk her into setting the 125 back up It might throw her off getting back into the 125 mood if I apologize before.

Remember, Tactful.

I like blackwater tanks. I'll bet it looks better than you think.

It would look a lot better if I had some better driftwood. Right now it's like two big unattractive logs. I'd love some spider wood... but I'm considering selling the whole setup.

If you change your mind and decide to keep it I know a good place to buy manzanita. Just saying. Lol

If I kept anything it'll be the fish. Retank the adults and sell the babies... speaking of, I have a young male and I think two females that I need to do something with soon...

It's a 34g bowfront, and I'm not really happy with the tank size or shape. It was a cheap buy and came with all the equipment.

I recently rescaped my 75 and I'm regretting it. This was before the rescape. I should have left it alone but I was getting bored with it. I spent $75 on the manzanita in this scape.

That's beautiful!

That's beautiful!

Thanks. I thought I wanted to try a high tech set-up. It's been a nightmare. Ever since I added co2 I've been fighting hair algae.

I'm off to bed. It's storming and my internet keeps shutting off. So I'm calling it a night. Sleep well peeps!

I have enough high tech with the reef... I want an easy peasy planned. I have a 40b that's empty. I may set it up in the office

Here is the 34 bowfront as it sits. The plant in the front is an Amazon sword I rescued from a tank that was half full of water and unplugged idk how long. Half of the leaves were rotten and it had a MASSIVE root system I had to trim. It was down to two healthy leaves late last winter. Java fen is stuck to the power filter... I didn't get the roots in the substrate well and, I just haven't messed with it. I also have some weird bacteria growing but doesn't seem to hurt anything. I need to clean the glass as well.

Male double red cacatuoides

Oldest male offspring, more dull red than father.

 

[SashimiTurtle]

Youngest male offspring... bright yellow, I believe the older was the same color at this size.

@NY_Caveman I'm loving the Rockettes reindeer costumes! I'd really like to see them perform in person.

I will see if I can steal you one

My cousin is coming this weekend with her son's family. They are going to the show then the kids and I are meeting them. Should be a fun time in the city.

 

[NY_Caveman]

Oh, and of course we would love to have you and Andrew here for a visit.

 

[NY_Caveman]

Beautiful planted tanks!

Beautiful planted tanks!

Thank you, but mine isn't even in the same league as Kimberly's.
