here is the out line for my newest idea mwhahahahaha!!!

ok green glowfish
green lit bubble stones hidden inside plastic 50 gallon drums *mini sized to tank*
green lit epoxy making it look like 55 gallon drums are leaking clear epoxy.
black and green gravel
black light and atnic lighting
java fern sparsley planted
background pic of either radio active sign or a toxic wast dump with some signs warning etc.

I like this, but you got some mad paint skills. :D
 
I saw a neat one that had silver hatchet fish in it with ball bearings as a "gravel" like substrate and stainless steel whisks propped upside down to add height to the tank. They even suspended some ball bearings to the center of the whisk. It looked really cool.

I have also seen a "zen garden tank", a "hamster tube tank", a "mountain tank" and a "bathroom tank". All were interesting but not my taste.
 
nice, how about a everything glows tank, like glow in the dark sand, flourescent colored plastic plants/decor and then glofish of every color, throw a black light on top and it all glows. or a tank from heck, every thing black and red, specimen jars with fish eyes and guts as decor, a volcano bubbler and a school of exodons or piranha. or how about maybe a tank with glass decor, like take clear glass and make caves out of it and stuff, that fake crystal stuff for substrate, then some glass catfish and ghost shrimp.
i got lots more ideas if ya want them, designing tanks is what got me into pets. currently have over 10 mini notebooks filled with designs for everything from a papua new guinea rainforest pool to an east african river bank.
 
oh or how about a tank that hangs from the ceiling and when you look up its filled with upside down catfish and the gravel and plants are glued to the top of the tank so it all looks upside down. that would be awesome!

You have quite an imagination. :screwy: That does sound cool though.
 
dude i have all the stuff figured out for all the tanks i come up with, i just picked up one of my books and it opened up to that page, the only hard part is the lighting and the rivets and screws to attached the tank to the ceiling. overall its not that hard of a tank.
 
Campfire. Benches made of driftwood, circle of stones and bushes at the edges. Maybe a bubbler in the fire pit if you like that kind of thing.
 
hahahah yu ppl have more ideas than i actually thought there cud be ... but can yu draw the ideas out lol i wana start seeing sum pictures with yur ideas
