Where did you get the manten stone? I ordered some online from aquaforestaquarium and they don't look nearly as nice as those.

finding thoes stones was not a cheap or easy task

Nice tank man. I liked the hardscape a lot and you really accentuated it with the plants. I'm in the Marines but stationed on an Army post in CA. Still waiting for my turn to go to the sandbox, I think I'll be the 2nd to set up an aquarium in a war zone haha

Hey doubleott05. Looking forward to seeing your new tank. Have you tried posting pictures through http://imageshack.us/? That site usually works well for me.

Can't wait to see your new layout. So glad you can have a tank over there. Everyone needs a little normalcy! Thanks for what you're doing for us all over there!
