I FINALLY got my 90g set up! Initially was trying to build a budget friendly 67g long I got for a deal. Between buying a house and still working full time I have tried to work this tank into my free time as much as I possibly could. I found the stand with canopy at a thrift store for $35. I sanded it down completely, refinished the canopy, top trim and painted the bottom of the stand. I decided I didn’t like how shallow the 67g was and picked up this 90g for a great price. The sand is play sand from Lowe’s($5 per 50lb bag). I got the manzanita driftwood off Facebook for $15, and I picked up these plants about 8 months ago from a local auction. The rocks came from a local landscape supply store for a whopping $17 and the lighting on the tank consists of (2) 30w 6500k flood lights off of Amazon for $27. The only thing not budget friendly is the fx4 filtering the tank. I still bought it second had for a decent price though!
Lots of time, energy, research; and yes, money, went into this. I am very proud to show it off even if it isn’t the biggest or the best. I love this hobby and I’m glad to be a part of this great society!!
If anyone has any questions about anything tank related or have any suggestions as to what else I could do to it feel free to comment!
Stocking list:
(5) Angels(I still don’t know exactly what they are, guessing just hybrids)
(3) geophagus red head tapajos
(3) white saum green terrors
(1) true parrot cichlid
(5) emerald green coryadoras
