I bought a bench/step ladder just for the tank that folds up well but it dosent hurt to have some reach to go with it.... like that scene from duece bigalow..... it still tends to get a bit nipply when im in there

Hey, so today I emailed a photo to a friend and the picture was 404KB!

[lastlight]

After sitting in the tank on a salt bucket and freezing my @$$ off the scape is done! Sand and a test frag as well (had PE almost right away so that's a good sign).

Only have a 2 year old+ phoenix over the tank for kicks till the rest of my gear arrives. Made taking shots tough so I had to turn on the fugly florescents. Room's still FULL of junk too so picture-taking room's at a premium

Wow this came together fast it seems on my end, not so much for u I imagine. Looking forward to seeing your green digi grow out.

Scaping looks sweet, & it's good to see it with light above it. Even though it's just one, it gives reason to believe when the tank is all properly lit up that having a white tank room won't be so bad. I'm kinda considering repainting the inside of mine blue, because I worry about the aesthetics of a white backdrop.

Just a note that the first shot had only the phoenix on. The rest of the shots had the fishroom lit. You can see in the first pic you get almost the same effect as a black bg (which always seems to give me more of a dark grey look when a tank is lit. With the wall being far enough back it actually has that dark greyish look to it but that might change when all the lights are on (with decent reflectors I might add). The backdrop might appear as a slightly lighter gray? My lights are also going to be closer to the front of the tank to help keep the back looking darker.

I was considering some magnet mounts for some sheets of black corrugated plastic for removal. I want to be able to magfloat the back of this tank with ease. I might even leave it totally open. It seems a lot of things with this build are solve as you get there
