Dude, that is tight. I LOVE the rockwork, it makes me want to do something like that! Nice use of plants also. :cool:
 
Just to elaborate a bit. The tank has been up for 4-5 months so far. Its a 75g bowfront, I have anacharis, italian and jungle val, some crypts, anubias, and java fern. I have about 3" of sand substrate, yet have no problems with plants being up rooted by the eartheaters. The inhabitants are 4 geophagus surinamensis, 6 red eyed tetras, 2 horsefaced loaches, 3 banjo cats, 1 whiptail cat, 1 veil tail pleco, 1 firemouth, 1 dwarf pike cichlid, and one unidentified haplochromis/auloncara. I know i know, african in with SA's....but my roomates insisted on color, and our ph and hardness is allready high here so I went for it, and he's actually very friendly. I will be replacing the red eyed tetras with roseline sharks soon. Thanks for the comments!!


Here's the unidentified fish....

I too have a bowfront, a 72 gallon by allglass. Not huge, but still the best aquarium I've ever owned. Square aquariums look so 1980's now that I've had it for a while. I have a pair of oscars and a sevrum in mine.

Mines a JEBO tank, dutch made, its VERY nice. It has a predrilled overflow for SW setup, an eclipse style over top filter, double pane bottom glass, that works VERY well and also makes current. The hood is 4x55w pc lights, 220 total. Stand and everything was 350 new, on sale at the local LFS. I absolutely LOVE it, and it looks perfect in my living room with my entertainment center. BTW thanks for the comments. I just find myself with a lot of tanks for my age (22) thank good ness I have a house, I have 2 10's, 1 29, 1 55, 2 75's and a 300.
