I love that crab...it's beautiful ! Nice tank too Moller...I really like the rocks you have in there. Is that a full 3 dimensional background or seperate rocks piled up ?
The background is just black. There is only 5 rocks in the tank and two pieces of wood. Those rocks are a result of years of searching rock cories and fish stores. Thank you for your coments

Having my options limited this is my first tank in the apartment a 15 Gallon High.. although i'm only allowed a 10. Just getting around to this Great forum already it has gave me insight into alot of things so here's a few pics and a small 1.5 mb AVI file of my Black Moor swimming in the bubbler wall.
One of the fake plants looks like plastic chains, and .. you're right I didn't want to pay 5.99 for fakes at the pet store so went to craftstore got a 6 foot piece with soft leaves for 3.99.. I cut into it to make sure no metal in the plastic chain area's.. and then used the live plant weight downs to hold it in place
Now.. how the heck do I get clear tank pics with a digital camera? I got to take tons of photos for the few half decent blurry ones I got.
Tank Setup:
15 Gallon High, Eclipse I Filtration/Lighting Hood, 4 Live plants, several fake, Driftwood. 1 Black Moor, 1 Unknown style Fancy Goldfish.
Well mine are blurry but I sat back on a stool about 8 feet took some and used the zoom on my digital camera.. I believe my problems with blur is fish movement and digital camera not having a fast shutter speed.. I experimented with flash and no flash and out of about 50 pics I found 4 I liked
Another way that I get them with no blur like my Avatar is do a short video on my digi-cam then screencapture the scene I like best
Thank you I will have to see if I can find some, while I wouldn't order a fish via online, plants I will take a chance.. my lfs does not seem to have much varieties in live freshwater plants.
Walmart sells those bulbs in thier fish dept Moor. They sell them as "lily bulbs", but you can't be sure what type you will get. I've gotten some very nice ones myself.
