Fishroom in the making!

The fishroom is still a mess, might redo the whole shabang

The 400 litres community tank in my living room.

Looks like a good start.

Looks like a nice space for a fish room, looking forward to seeing it progress.

Please add pictures if you have the time as it changes, it always helps inspire others.

Did a little change today, removed the two bottom tanks and shortened the legs a bit. Now there is room for the 400 liter on top. That's where my group of Sturisomatichthys leightoni group will go.

Checking if I'm happy with the setup before i add sand. Running some filters to get some old fun cleaned out.

[MarcW]

Looking good, keep the updates coming. I like the look of all the wood in the tank, will make some nice hiding places for the fish.

Added a few plants in the foreground. Slower waters in this part of the tank. Hopefully the grass will spread out. Will add some Valisinera gigantea in the background.

Dwarf sag? That will make a nice looking grass bed.

[mallemalle]

The grass is Lilaeopsis brasiliensis, don't know the popular name for it.

Themperature in the tank is going between 22 and 24 Celsius.

Ph is stabilised at 6.2
Gh is 6
Kh is 3

Feel confident to introduce the fish now.

Microsword or dwarf chain sword. Beautiful plant when it fills in.

Day 5

[fishguy1978]

Very nice. Congrats

[mallemalle]

A friend of me welded up a new rack last friday, beginning to get the feeling how it should be in my fish room.

Size of tanks is 375 litres on top and 325 litres underneath.

[mallemalle]

128 litres pr tank

I will have to try and have a good look the next time I get an invite to visit Norway

[mallemalle]

Long time no see Medaka, you are more than welcome when this pandemic ends. I live like 15 minutes drive from Oslo Airport Gardermoen.
