Go figure

Post by xrayjeeper83 »

Ok Im placing new rocks in my tank, pics at the bottom, I took the glass tops I have off and laid them on the floor. I know that was a dumb move, expecially onces I stepped on it and BROKE IT. So I only have half a top now(was 2 peices). Im glad im wearing socks or I would probebly have a nasty cut on my foot

Glass is the cheapest, obviously weak too lol. WIll cost me like 15 bucks to replace. And they have a hinge running down the middle so you can easily open and do what you need to do.

Yep sure did. IIRC I got this tank from my aunt years ago. It was sitting doing nothing in a shed at my old house. So I pulled it out cleaned it up and have it to where I want it, enless someone see's something that needs to be changed. Now I just need to get a Fahaka, yes I know this is a grow out tank dont have the money for a 125G tank right now but will asap

Sorry you broke your glass. It is a nice looking tank, but I'd throw a background on there. :)

+1 I like black as well, gives it a nice clean look, and works really well for photos.
Speaking of which.. I need to get Nala a background :P
