Wow, thank you...my first random compliment ever! lol :)

Seriously though, thank you. It's a work in progress, but I am having fun with it! Now that most of the major expenses are out of the way, I am trying to budget $25 a week for plants, rock, driftwood, etc.

I am anxious to get my Makobe Isands in the tank!

Thank you :)

No problem. Credit should be given where it is due. Hey that my weekly budget for my fish keeping hobby also. I am working on adding a 55gallon sump to my tank for extra filtration for the future inhabitants.

which make it leaking during test run...


now thinking without an efficient filtration system (sump tank system), i am thinking to add eheim power head+3 feet long media filter box fill with bio ball,bio ring,sponge and volcano rock

is it a good idea?

Thanks, Are you still in China?

2 of the larger pieces are attached to a 8 foot 1x6 running on an angle above them. The board is hidden by the floating plants.

Without doing that they would just float out of position and upend some of the plants in the tank when moved by the current from the filter.

The board works well.

Yeah still in China till early '11. I like the board idea........ simple
