DIY Plywood 1200Gallon -Officialy Started

You can try to re-arrange the wood so the Discus can't hide so much. But have the Discus been in there as long as the other fish. Maybe they just need more time to get used to the tank and you. It would seem after awhile they would start to gather near the front like the others when they think they'll get food. But maybe there just shy right now. You do have a lot of different light types. I like the LED in a deep tank it gives off a nice shimmer effect. Maybe go with all 30W LED

Hey again. I dont think i will rearange any wood, they are frikking HUUUGE! I also have to have hiding spots as long as i keep stingrays, i think all of the other fish appriciate it. I totally agree on the leeds giving a deep tank a nice shimmer effect. Il might have to buy more of those. I added a litte more light on the left side tho, take a look and give me some comments on it.

Looks ok has a lot of yellow in it. I think I prefer the white light myself

Me too, have to look for new bulbs. But was it ok with more light in the tank?(in general)

I agree about using less yellow coloured bulbs. It looks good with more light, but my preference would be for less light (more like the original level) but with a better spectrum for showing off the colours of the fish.

Just a minor update, took me 1 year, x months, x days, and TWO houres to get this done Sparkeling and putting a beertable in left to do

Man, seems sad having the tank room as a junk store, a couch and a bar fridge should be the next 'upgrades' IMO!!

That is actually the next upgrade, bartable and chairs in front of the big love It is not really a junk store, there is some savings under the tank indeed, but thats why i built it off floor right, to not lose all the space needed for allt he stuff this hobby brings with it I am going to put a wall in front of it all, so on the next update, you wont see anything I cant seem to throw anything away?

The bike has nothing to do in there tho, have to agree on that, but for 4000$ im not gonna put it outside when i dont have a garage
