Fantastic!

This is a perfect example of how I think all aquaria should be. The neatness and organization of the hardware in the stand is as interesting to look at as the aquarium and lends an artistic feel to the whole.

I'm looking forward to seeing the aquarium again when the moss has grown up a little and softened the hard lines of the wood some more.

The tank is very mature looking for only two weeks old! When (if you are) are you going to fish other than the ottos and what kind? I love how you were able to make it look just like ADA without all of the ADA equipment. Great tank and set up all together. It will also help when the HC grows in more and the rotala green grows fuller and can be shaped.

(this is my first post here, so hello everyone!)

Cool tank. Don't know much about aquascaping, but I was wondering:

1. Where is the heater located or do you not use one?
2. What's with the jumbo thermometer on the side glass near the front? Is this an aesthetic choice or is there some other reason for using it?
3. A general question about the ADA hole in the side of the stand set up. Since the goal of the glass/clear filter intake/outflow/hoses seems to be to "hide" these things, why bring attention to the filter hose by running it up the side of the tank as opposed to putting it out of sight behind the tank?

If you're using a background, then running the filter hoses up the back makes sense.
However, when not using a background, running it up the side of the tank, looking at the
setup head on you don't see the hose.

Whats that orb-like thing just below the water outlet?? whats it for?

Okay... never mind... i just checked out CAL website myself and found out..haha.. cool device...

but got a question... with your water outlet having a bend at the top... does the co2 ever get trapped on the top where the bend is??

I just wanted to say nice tank i really like the drift wood, the lines on it are almost too prefect it almost looks like a fake piece of wood. I love the organization as well.


I was getting ready to ask about the bubble thing inline with the filter outlet also, then i noticed the co2 line connected to it.

So clean and nice looking. An inspiration to my planted (scourge from hell algae) tank. Great job. Keep posting updates!!!

The inline diffuser is fantastic!.. I did alot of research before purchasing and it sure paid off. I studied the flow of the ADA lily pipe and realised that in conjunction with the Cal Aqua diffuser, it breaks down all the co2 bubbles to a very fine mist and disperses it evenly through the whole tank via the lily pipe. 10 out of 10 for looks, practability and ease of installation.

 

[sgonzalezht]

hello did you have a update?

(srry 4 my english)

 

[Sapherion]

Update after 45 days.

 

[longhornxtreme]

Gorgeous tank.

 

[insomniaclush]

Quick question on your lighting, I have a 30-c and am trying to find a power compact light housing such as yours that would fit around 40 or more watts. What is the brand of the light housing/bulbs and what are the measurements? Any help would be appreciated!!

 

[fishman9809]

You should submit your tank in some nano aquascaping contests!!!

It is reallly, really gorgeous.

 

[waterfaller1]

I agree it is even awesome inside the stand. Amazing & well thought out. Thanks for inspiring!

 

[arowanaman]

This tank reminds me of looking at the cube tanks in the first Amano book "nature Aquarium world" very well done. It might have allitle more effect if the rocks under the driftwood stood up allitle higher, but really nice looking either way.

Cool setup! I always wanted to try out this diffuser. Glad to hear it works well on your cube. How do you think it would perform on a 60 or 90cm tank?

Nice looking tank! Any new updates?
