12x8x8

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
easily length wise, I'd be a bit iffy about the light reaching the bottom depth though. Lighting info isn't my strongest point, hopefully a few more experienced members can chime in; I wouldn't be 100% confident recommending them for that depth...
Did I list the dimensions wrong? The tank will be 10" tall and 14" front to back.
 
I definitely appreciate you letting all of us piggyback on your thread. I will post some pics here once I start setting my tank up just because we have such a good discussion going.

Scratch everything I said before, Lepisosteus Lepisosteus hooked me up with a 16x9x9 rimless tank. Pretty much perfect size that I was looking for. I was also getting worried about access to the inside of the tank with the Fluval, even though its a nice looking setup.

So once I get in my new house (1 month!) I'll setup my tank.

I'm thinking:

- 16x9x9 tank
- black background
- black carib sea super naturals sand. Is this okay for plants and shrimp?
- not sure about deco yet
- looking at this for a heater

I think I can hide it in the sand??

- not sure what HOB to use. Think an aquaclear 20 will be too big/powerful?
Also could get this, but would prefer not to if I dont need to, its about an hour and a half drive for me.

Let me know what you think!
Aha my setup will be similar to what you have going, I'm tossing up the idea of one of those internal filters over the hang on the back, not sure yet. Look forward to getting both these tanks set up man

sounds good :) any pics? How do you mean internal filters over the back? Do you mean a hob or something else?
