WIFE BUILDS 180G!!!!

[Mr.Firemouth]

My wife never really does anything in the fishroom with me. She likes the fish tanks but usually doesn't ever take any action in the fishroom. To curb this behavior I asked her to help me "design" the aquascaping in the 180g I had that I was going to use for a new Firemouth display tank. She designed all the colors and layouts of the house and the exterior landscapes, so she wanted to know more. I phished around thru some Amano sites and showed some layouts, then showed her the materials I had to use, and the plants and she came up with this...WOW! I was impressed from someone who has NEVER set-up a tank before!!!!
Full tank shot...not finished yet, had leaking bulkhead and needed to order some more parts, but aquascape is done...

Close ups....Tank was used so glass is kinda scratched up(sorry)....

Once I get all the plumbing parts in and the wet/dry is online I will add the firemouths and put on the canopy!
I think she did an awesome job! I was soooo nervous because those rocks are heavy and I was waiting for her to crack the tank! She really did it all and I was like "WOW"!!!!

Very nice job... I have a similar multi level aquascaping plan in mind for our 240 but most of the detail work will be done by my wife.

[amehel0]

wow. dude that is great. i rekon slightly more dense planting on the terraces but the plants will thickenup in the next couple of months so update us then

 

[WyldFya]

It looks good. I'd add some short anubias species in the foreground, but that is just me. The rock work in the tank is great!
