First post - new custom build

[gerryd]

Excited to see the changes. I've always loved this tank!

Hey and thanks!

I appreciate you still following this thread... Hope all is well.

Should be all done by end of Aug. So almost 2 years to the day....

350 to START I may add more based on how things go. 400-500 is my goal...

That is going to look fantastic! If/when my aro dies I'm going to chuck a few hundred tetras of some description in my tank as I love the look of a massive school with room to move. Probably won't be cardinals though, they're damn expensive here, would be looking at several thousand for a school like yours...

Looking forward to updates

I'll get some pics up of the rock we will use in a couple/few days. The substrate will again be ADA but all new after 2 years. Many of the nutrients in it are gone and is a good opportunity to replace it all.

Thanks for following along still. Hope all is well on your end....

Hey all,

Here are some pics of the new scape at 20 days. Things are going well and I will add amano shrimp and then a week after 25 fish every few days with water changes between.

Slow and easy does it.



Later
