Hello SD people! Love this forum, been lurking for awhile!
Anyways, thought I would start a thread here to share my progress and ideas for my new 120g lightly planted discus setup. This will be an ongoing updated thread, I am doing this on a check-to-check budget, so please bear with me.
Hope I am on the right track! Here is what I have so far:
120 gallon glass 4x2x2 - $120
40 gallon acrylic commercial tank 48x12x15 - $40
DIY stand: nine 8ft 2x4, 140 2.5" deck screws, wood shims - $45
Total investment so far - $205
75255
75256
75257
75258
I am picking up another tank just like my "sump", and will be using it as a BB grow-out tank, I will not be putting juvies in the DT.
I will be using a 1.5" herbie style overflow, the glass hole saw and bulkheads are in the mail.
Thanks for looking, feel free to share criticisms or thoughts!
