75 gallon aquarium

[FSM]

I am pretty much done setting up my new (used) tank.

The seals were really degredaded, so I resealed it.



and it doesn't leak!

I also had to get a stand for it. Here it is built and stained:


the filter



all done! Black sand, black painted background, and some rocks.





temp is at 79F, and I put the fluval filter media in one of my other tanks to collect some bacteria. Almost ready for fish!

I'll be getting some silver dollars, a bichir or 2, and a male Herichthys carpintis 'escondido'

I'll see what I can find...I'd like an albino senegal and a delhezi though.


I'll tank some more tank shots later; it was still pretty cloudy when I took those.

Did you build the stand yourself. It looks good. I love the look of a black bottom tank. Its coming along nicely.

I got the stand off ebay.
