Chasing Sanity Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 That's nice! Is that part of an Aqua One tank? Nah, just a cheapy from my LFS. Stained the stand myself to match the trim in my living room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forever_and_a_day Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 ooo, looking very nice! can i ask where you got that dark substrate from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chasing Sanity Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 ooo, looking very nice! can i ask where you got that dark substrate from? It's a really fine gravel that my LFS buys in bulk and rebags. It's a great substrate, axolotl safe even :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Lovely tank! Looks great, bet the fish love it. Nice substrate too - perked up at the key words "axolotl safe". Would never be able to find my melanoid on it though - he already is tricky to find on light substrate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chasing Sanity Posted October 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 That's where having a gold albino comes in handy! He looks amazing on the black! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 As I'm sure he does! That's a perfect opportunity to do a little photoshoot on him maybe? Captain Slow wasn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chasing Sanity Posted October 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 That's him He's still super stroppy about losing the 4 foot tank! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
