Yeah I have fish already...immmmm just storing them in YOUR 125...I will let you know when I need them back hahahahahahaha.

Really tho...no fish yet...but your tank was one of the deciding reasons on what im putting in there...you got a nice cropping in that 125!! And I like the bolder type rocks you got...thats the kind im looking for to put in my tank too....do you know what its called exactly?

I want fish bad but im taking my time and setting it up fully first. I need to still find someone to ship me some 3M sand. I also need to widen the teeth on the overflows...and one have any ideas on how???

LOL its such a badass setup Id love for my fish to go in there. Im glad I inspired you man. The rocks were free from this construction site near where I work at. You can find some cool, big rocks at landscaping places too. I really like the pool filter sand I have, its prerinsed and sinks immediately. The fish hardly stir it up because its heavy. Keep posting pics man. Also leave me a comment on my video!!!

I have gone to one place by me for those rocks but they didnt have any....just gotta find some. I really want black sand so I can do the easy pool filter stuff. I can get Tahitian moon sand easy but I dont like that as much as S grade that I have seen in pics.

Where to leave a comment...on utube? I never did that before...ill look into it.

I just went and acquired some rock (the gray stuff) I been eying up the last few weeks :D Theres a lot of it but its bigger chunks. The plan is to also have some smaller river stones on there side nestled in the black sand here and there between the wood and big rocks and things like that. There will not be ANY of the white rock...thats just holding wood down.

Comments...





Also this is how I will run the airline tube for the corners...once the sand is in you wont see jack.

Its sick dude!!

You gotta sign up on youtube.com to leave comments.

BTW what are your PH readings with those pieces of wood in there? I had a big piece and no matter what my PH was always below 7.0 so I had to take it out.
