not bad at all some times simple is good.
Justin, I remember going over to your house when this thing was completely empty, all the weekends and trips to home depot for supplies and all the changes that has gone on in our hobbies and lives in the time it took to get this beast running...
Gotta say, it looks a lot better full of water than it did on your garage floor while we scrambled with the garage door so your landlord wouldn't see it!
Can't wait for the MFK meet next weekend, hopefully I get to see this dovii in person finally.

Oh, and it's really weird/cool to see that beast piece of wood in there! Glad it didn't go to waste sitting on my porch forever. 
Hopefully it decides to stop being magic and sinks soon!

I'm always impressed with your tanks, Justin. You really have a talent of Aquascaping. The Dovii is incredible! I have a few similar silk plants that I purchased from Hobby Lobby very cheap. It's funny how the same fake plants are sold at pet stores for double or triple the price.They do seem to hold algae which my smaller fish and fry love to graze on. Keep up the excellent work. I hope you'll have a build thread for the Festae tank.

LOL I forgot about that! I just finished cleaning out the garage to get ready for a new tank/make a nice area to hang out. This tank is moving where the 125 growout is right now. Lets get together this weekend, I need to load up on food and some thorichthys. That wood is sunk now, I have it propped up on some rocks as a place for the female to hide under. The tank looks a little cluttered but it's "retreats" for the female so I don't have to use a divider. When the festae get this tank the same should work for them as well. I'm happy with it. I can't thank you enough for all your help bro!
The tank is looking really, really nice. It looks like it belongs in a zoo or public aquarium. Beautiful.
HOWEVER - It's not really a full-tank-shot, is it? You cut a foot or so off each end...
haha thanks Dan!!!
Thank you nick!
Thanks Balton! You have the nicest festae pair I've ever seen and is the reason I pulled the trigger getting mine. Thank you for that.
Thanks Al!! This will be the festae tank though when the dovii move out. I will for sure do a built thread over in setup for the new dovii tank. I just missed out on a 10'x4'x30" up north of me a few hours.
I'll find one pretty soon. I'll get an FTS of the 120 and 125 gallon tanks as well soon. They are looking pretty good IMO. Nice... It looks natural... Your tank and Dovii are beautiful
Hey thanks!
