Whoaaa Jedster.... I like the look of both, before & after. But since you added the Aro's the look after looks more accomodating. Those Aro's are sweet bro. They look more white than silver.
Sorry the tank is kind of murky. I came home and the filter pad was clogged and I washed it out. I"ll wait a couple days if it doesn't clear up I'm gonna throw a new one in.
The silvers are approx. 28-30" I know the tank isn't wide enough but they turn at ease with space to spare unlike my old 25" P. Niger so I am not too worried.
