My friend Kris (Machine) gave me this 30g setup since he didn't have room for it in his new place.

I've been thinking of how to scape it, and really had a pre-planned look I wanted to go for.

I finally got to do a hardscape without having to work around the needs of bichirs! lol

Anyways, I finished setting it up in one day, check out the progression:



Cleaned and ready for gravel:


Decided to go with my favorite gravel:


Really happy with the driftwood:


After the drftwood was in place, I added some 'mulm' (fish poop) from my established 60g, to seed the new gravel:


Kris built the stand and canopy:


Hid the heater behind the driftwood:



...and with a few plants from my 60g, and some rocks I bought specifically for this tank, I finished off the tank in one day:

Thanks Ben, hey dude what are the dimensions on your Edge? The reason I ask is because the stand Kris built has space for a 10g under it, and I'm thinking that an Edge would look siiick down there since you'd be able to see down into the tank and from the front.

The sides are open on the stand too, so I could still see through the sides.

It's 17" x 10.5" x 9"
Wow! It's perfect, now I gotta start saving up and get one. I think it would look cool to have it low so that you could see it from above.



What is this favorite gravel of yours? I like it!
It's made by JEBO. If your lfs carries Jebo product, they may be able to get it.
