Thanks guys, it's a 46bf and yeah the plants are java ferns.

Well it looks really good, I will have to try the java ferns in my tank and see how it goes, mine love to pick at the live plants though.

I've had fake plants in it for a while, about a month ago I've bought 3 bunches of java fern on sale and put them in just to see what happens, at first they picked at it, but then didn't touch it, it's already beginning to root to the rocks.

Thats a great set-up, and an amazingly active tank, you spill coffee in there?

Thanks, lol yea I wish it was just coffee, my long supposed greshakei male turned out to be a female (took on a male's coloration I guess) and was holding 3 days after I took the vid, you can see the blue fuelleborni (supposed daddy) and the he/she on the left side going crazy with each other.

I've sold her back to the lfs (since I have an all male tank and no place for her) and bought 2 other juvies, one is a definite male greshakei this time around, with a more intense coloration.

A little video of my 72G show tank.:)
I took this with wife’s Canon SD. Image stabilization works well, decent VCD video quality in AVI format, no exposure and color controls, not too shabby for a little digicam.
Now the website forces compression, about 15 times strong, before publishing. Anyway, hope you like it:

Tank looks great, what is the background made out of, is it real stone or fake. Looks real and I really like the 3D look.

I'm not here to show off, I just wanted to see some other peoples setups. I have worked hard to get mine looking the way it dose and I know everyone else here dose also and I would like to see video of them. I guess it dose give people an oppertunity to show off their tanks and what they have created, but with as much work everyone puts into creating and maintaining their tanks, they deserve a chance to show it off a little.
