Good Day all,

Just found this forum last week and really enjoy the knowledge and board talk here. I thought Id post a few pics of my 90 Gal. I must warn, I have not had an Aquarium in a decade, and even then it was a small one so this is my first setup of a significant size.

Tank Mates:
Live Plants
1 Angel Fish
2 Bala Sharks
2 Clown Loaches
2 Leporonicus
2 Dwarf Gourami
1 Common pl*co
1 Flying Cat
10 Ghost shrimp
4 Velvet Sword tails
2 Mystery Snails
1 FW Crab very small and claws broken

Thanks,

I tried finding black sealant, but could not, so I used reg Aquarium silicon instead, the loaches love lounging around on top of it, and the common pleco loves to havg upside down from it.

Now are you talking about the shelf on the right or the left? If right, what's that setup in the left rear? Looks sorta like a shelf also?

metallhd,

The shelf at mid tier of tank on the left is held up by the silicone sealant, thats the one I wanted to find the black sealant for. The shelf in the lower level right is stacked on slate pillars, the ghost shrimp and plecos love it there as well due to it's darkness. When I want to view who is under the lower right shelf, I turn on a set of underwater lights that are in place that light that area and a few others in the tank up. I put the mid and lower level shelfs there for some specific fish, reading on who was top, mid, or bottom level dwellers, I figured with 22 inches of water in depth I would give a good spread of dwellings for the fish doing it that way.
