Thanks, ya its sad that I only got about 7 feet of the tank in the video another 3 feet are still missing, lol, I have Frontosas, and allot of Geo Redhead Tapajos as the main groups, you see allot more as the video goes on.

Love the dimensions of the tank!!!

at 0:06, on the left under the red zebra, are those geos?
 
For some reason they look a lot different from the Tapajos I've seen.

I watched the whole vid, I'm hoping to upgrade to a tank with similar dimensions as your here soon and watching your vid keeps me patient.
 
Now that's what I call a tank! Beautiful setup. Did you paint the bottom of the tank on the outside to stop the reflection when the rays move the sand?
 
Video Number 2 only took 2 hours to upload[video=youtube_share;L0XGry5r01A]http://youtu.be/L0XGry5r01A[/video]
 
Very nice! Interesting mix of fishes. What do you have for lighting?
 
very nice! never seen Africans with rays before. i like the color... water looks prefect too.

not a fan of the clay pots though :( lol
 
I have 17 watt 6 total -6500K compact florescent bulb that I purchased at Costco. It actually lights the tank really well. I run two bulbs off a timer which lights the tank 8am to 8pm and they are pefect for normal everyday , then I have 4 bulbs on a switch so when I want more light I turn those on. I also have a good bit on top of the tank and have not cleaned the covers for a while so its a touch darker then it can be. To see my lighting setup look through my thread. uploadfromtaptalk1359122910263.jpg
