my plywood tank frame! (with pics)

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
festives, festivums, flag cichlids, whatever you call them, may say semi aggressive on lfs tags but thats relative to other community fish. if i were to give them an MFK rating i would say PEACEFUL, like canada without hockey. they are interesting little guys though. if youre going that peaceful some tetra/danio schools could be cool. a school of 10 or 15 giant danios all swiiming in sync would really please the misses. so would buenos ares tetra, i really like them, quite colorful, fast and always biccering amongst themselves. but i think the best fish possible for that tank, assuming you want it to stay peaseful, would be discus. they school, breed, are BEAUTIFUL, have personalities and will seriously please the misses, just don't leave their receipt lying around.
emerald corys are great. they will breed no doubt, its just a matter of if the babies survive, which i'm sure some will.
wow, thats a dedicated water change schedule. but this things alot bigger. i really think that you and your fish would appreciate some wet dry.
i love that motoro!!!
thats it, subscribed! :)
 
just done 10% of my 500 water change today, last night i filled 1/2 of the tank lips and seams so i get a look as if it were made of 1 piece, A QUICK TIP-
 
sorry bout the last post laptop playing up! TIP- if wood filler is getting to expensive buy 1coat plaster its usually white and can be used instead of wood filler and sands down nice too! just going to be sanding tonight! and buying wood for the tank base tomoz so should have a base if all goes to plan by tomoz night!!! then ready for the painting to be done wednesday/ thursday! after that is done i will be finishing the base maybe with doors??or a cloth drape? the very bottom of the tank and very bottom of the base will have a architrave around at the moment i like the look of ogee architrave, the colour will be creamy colour and the architrave will be stained in a light oaky orange(antique pine colour).

when i have 2 coats of the epoxy on it will have a couple of weeks to dry while my finances recover to buy the acrylic!

does any1 have any tips on epoxy resin??? help

cheers for the comments 'my fish eat your fish'

whats the motoro like? good/bad??
