Forced rescapes, i needed the tanks spotless & understocked. I have since had an Operation which will prevent me from doing any maintenance for at least a month
5ft Goldfish tank
4ft Community tank
15" Cherry shrimp tank
The 2nd background is still waiting to be sealed, am hoping to get to it this weekend. Bad weather has stopped me lately being able to get it done. If i cant get to it this weekend it will have to sit for at least a few more weeks before i can try again
The 1st one is holding up brilliantly...
I'm thinking of pulling the top tank out and boxing the top tier to use as storage, i need to centralise some fish stuff lol
The tank pulled out will be used as just a stand alone tank
Still waiting though to get the room painting finished so it can be moved to its new home
The ones that have fallen into the tank have most likely drowned. The others that are still out of the water will , chances are, hatch as normal. The babies will eat the same as the parents and do not really require any special care. If kept humid the snails should hatch in around 2-3 weeks
Yep...the mesh is for filter inlet and/or outlet......The heater also can sit behind there, so a small powerhead is often in there to keep water moving
So i have been into the DIY backgrounds at the moment. Trialling a new coating cement and also a new sealer. I am hoping to be able to sell tanks with one off handmade backgrounds in them. Thats the plan anyway, hence the trials to find the one that works best for what i want.
Just finished the...
An update: After moving a 4ft light over onto one of the tier tanks (one will be planted) i've just found out the tanks arent 4ft.....they are actually 4.5ft....they are 63Gal (not a 55gal as i thought) tank...wow, thats a suprise!
Thanks :)
The top tank will be housing my Peppermint BN colony and cherry shrimp
Middle tank will be housing angels and clown loaches, along with some smaller school fish
Bottom tank not fully decided on at this stage
These got delivered today....love em
Snapped a quick pic of it
The ends will have false sides put into the stand (so i can pull off and access if needed) to keep it looking tidy. The stand also has a single 4ft light above each tank which is a bonus. They cut all new lids for it too...
