Thanks! Here's one from a while ago, it looks basically the same now minus some decor due to an algae bloom and the pike rearranging a bit...

Thanks Eric...
The blue gravel was sort of a split-second decision. The store was out of black gravel, and I either had to buy another color or wait longer to cycle the tank...
But no worries, I'm changing it to sand when I get the 120g up and running.

wow, they look great with the blue gravel! My ven pike darkened up in my tank with black gravel and itblends in perfectly so i can never see it unless its feeding time. Kind of sucks because all i have is black gravel in all of my tanks.

Thanks! I have noticed that although the gravel isn't very aesthetically pleasing, it does have some benefits.
