hello all i am very pleased to hear all the coments i guess i will post more pics. since i no somewhat how now and if you all want bigger and brighter pics no problem just let me now how to do it. I can take as many pictures as you want and i also have a 125 gallon that has just been sat up now for about 3 weeks and it is just crying to have some pics of it.
But any ways the rocks are straight out of Pennslyvania. I get them from my house.
and then i boil them then clean them with a scruber from a dollar store that you would use as a back washer. haha.

The tank is gorgeous! I'd love to set up something like that, but I'm worried that I won't be able to do much cleaning without tearing down/reassembling all the time. What is your cleaning routine?

my cleaning routine is every:
every 6-8 days clean water and gravel
every other cleaning, take out all plants and clean them
I take out about 35% of the water every change and replace with water and use dechlore. and use salt.
I dont move the rocks unless i am going to rearange them.
**note** when i placed the base rocks in the aquarium i made sure that their was not very much gravel under the rocks. just enoght so you cant see the glass. there for it does not build up with crap in the gravel. I have one power head also in the rocks to also help keep crap out of the rocks.
