ok..spent all day 12/27/12 red doing the tank, took all the fish out and drained it to do this.

after

tell me what you guys think, ..where it could be improved? if you like the old or new..ext ext ( and yeah the power head up front is ugly...working on that)

I was going for a more "open" space feel caves and wood work on the bottom back and sides for the Tinanti and open swimming space for the rainbows up top
 
doesn't look like enough of a change to have spent a whole day doing that... and I like the smaller branches sticking up in the before pic.

the after looks nice though, get some ferts in there to fill out those plants and it will look really nice.

well i tore out all the rock work in the first pic and replaced it mostly with logs, the branchy log was for growing new anubia on it..and is not broken down in to another tank.

and most of the front plants were not touched due to them being fairly new

I like it, just put some taller backround plants in the back

that is all ready in the plans ^_^ just waiting for them to grow

really wanted to get good swimming space for my rainbows and good hiding caves for the tinanti on the bottom
 
I like both. The top a little more as stated earlier with the smaller branches sticking out on the top. But both set ups look nice.

The back looks like a wall paper. Get some things closer to the front of the tank. Missing the 3D look it had before.

that is kinda what i was thinking..got frustrated after a while and just took some of the stuff i had further up front out.
 
Yeah a little something more towards the front would be nice, maybe try another piece of driftwood in the bottom along the front?
 
alright, thank you everyone!

there is allot of rock work and logs made in to caves that are hard to see in the pic.

..im going to take a few days of just staring at it to before diving back in to change some stuff up

thank you for your input everyone!
