This tank is being done on a budget of as little as possible. So far spent on it is $14. I have had the tank sitting in my garage with one broken end for a number of years, a fellow club member gave me the glass and I have put it together. OK so the lights need fixing - in a couple of weeks I plan to hang them from the ceiling. Just lots of little things to be done.
I would like to set up a fixed heat radiation system for under the sand but thats something that will have to wait for the next tank.
The tank holds only a few fish at present but I plan it to be not so much a "large fish" tank (I already have one), but a large "fish tank", holding communities of fish.
The rock is black shale and some greywacke sourced from a local river which also happens to be where the supply water comes from, the fish love it and its easy to chisel and form.
into shape. Slowly but surely it will come together.
The black baskets are house plants which like humid warm environments. Its an experiment in filtration and plant growth.
