Nice tank! I think you should ditch the background for a black one.

I've actually been thinking about doing that, but this background came with the tank and well I just haven't gotten the urge to do that yet. might do that when we move and I tear the tank down to move it.

everything looks great to me; for the cloudiness, have you tried Clarity? I've used that to take care of cloudy water after using Flourite, I'd think it might work for sand too . . . it's supposed to clump up the floating particles so that they are big enough to be removed by your filter

one comment: I think the flowerpot in the corner is too small for anyone but the convict to ever use (?)

Give the tank time to clear on it's own, it eventually will. Your GT is sweeet!!!
1 suggestion: when you upgrade go for a 180 or 210. the price is comparable and you'll be able to do much more with it. I too went from a 75 to a 150 a few years ago and wish I had gone bigger when I took the plunge. At first It'll seem huge but before long you'll be wishing that you had the extra width.

the convict, dempsey and the jag all fit in the pot so far. As for the cloudiness is still there and the tanks has been set up for a few months now with the sand. i've tried the water clarity stuff and it's helped a little but soon as the fish start digging in the sand it comes back. I've added a micron pad to the AC 110 which helps but every day or two I have to replace it with a new one since it gets clogged up with fine particals of sand.

Yeah I'd love a 180 or larger but I found a great deal on a 150 and already bought it. but I've already told the GF if I found a 180 or larger for a good price I'm buying it. I do like the dimensions on the 180 better than the 150.

Have you tried Seachems Purigen? My friend recommended it as I had problems with murky water which got worse when I added wood to the aquarium. I bought it and my water is crystal clear now!
