Everything looks awesome . Quick question . Do you just drop the tiles in butted up against each other or do you seal them together ?
For the floor tile, I just dropped them in/ layed them on the bottom. They are in there very tight. Due to the shape of then tank an triangular overflows, I had to use a tile saw to cut them for a perfect fit.

The wall tiles are sealed with Eco bond adhesive. so far, so good with that product.

Awesome thanks for info. Yea like I said before looks great and has me wanting to do something similar to my 220. Just didn't wanna have to seal it or something more permanent along those lines . The background looks great too.

This is an awesome setup. So jealous!

Great taste in fish as well. Those pikes are amazing. Very hard to find. Thanks!

Just posted a video on YouTube. Not sure how to embed it in a post.
Sick tank! I'm glad you kept those pikes. Those are rare and you may be just but a handful of people keeping them. Mbu is sick too. What a tank.

Thanks! Your thread inspired me to take some footage today. The mbu is the newest addition, he hangs out under the floating plants and I slip him a shrimp or 2 every time I go in there. He has a ways to go before becoming a beast: "only" about 10" long.

And yeah, I REALLY wanted to add a zebrina and Tapajos pikes to the tank. However, the seller wouldn't budge and neither would I! I was probably asking for trouble by adding them anyways. I'm very jealous of your zebrina mrrobxc mrrobxc !

I'm from Torrance. If I was still there, I'd pick those Tapajos up. Your tank is big enough. The price is right. I highly encourage you to get them.
