Ok, well I was playing around and decided to take some pics today of my tank and its inhabitants to eventually update my website with more photos.

I had a bit of trouble with some glare (gotta take the right side of the tank at night) - but here they are.

I have optimized the pics (ie reduced their size via JPEG Optimizer) for easy loading. Since there is a lot - I will post General tank Photo's on this thread - and pics of some of my fish on another thread.

Comments welcome and appreciated.

Whole Tank:

Morleyz - LOL, that is one of my artificial plants. I have a few artifical plants I liked mixed in with my live ones because of my low tech, low light (1.5 watts per gallon), non CO2 setup.

All of the grassy type low lieing plants I looked into need more light, etc - so I just used this. It actually looks quite realistic, and mixed in with the live plants is kind of hard to tell it isn't live. Its made by SeaGarden - they make a line of higher quality silk plants
