Rocky Tank Designs: Post Your Faves...

[Fish on Fire]

Small bristlenose breeding tank that I recently set up with gravel from a local stream bed.

Nice set-up man, how did you sterilize/clean the rocks before using them? Boiling? Got a full tank shot?

I just rinsed them real well under warm tap water. Everyone in the tank is doing well. The Bristlenose have a new batch of fry swimming about, and I even threw in a dozen 3 week old fry from breeding CA cichlids and all is well.
That shot is pretty much the full tank shot as it is only 20 gallon tank. I just cropped out the sponge filter stuck on the back wall along with the heater and hang on filter tubes.
