Blackwater Rhom tank

[oneyedfish]

Update time. Started using blackwater extract, and changed up the lighting. Removed the 48" beamswork LED fixture, and went with a 36" dual bulb T8 fixture with 2 25 watt Colormax bulbs to bring out the reddish brown dim look I'm after. Comments??

improving, I kept a blackwater tank, I love them, just had lots of wood and oak leaves and almond leaves in it. looked very natural, bought reds out and the greens in the plants. I will be doing it again in the autumn, but wont be doing it until then, not paying the silly prices for a leaf in the stores

also my background was black and had pretty low lighting in there, probably helped achieve the look

[video=youtube;6e7iW518GAs]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6e7iW518GAs[/video] there will be loads if you check my youtube channel out. I just added leaves and wood though, no extract, loved it though, and I think the piranha do as well

Well done! I love the look! Exactly what I'd like to accomplish with my tank.
