Re: my 125 gallon project
Looks like your off to a great start,good luck going forward.
Re: my 125 gallon project
Very aesthetic and eye pleasing tank look Matt.
I can't wait to see discus swimming in this beauty.
What's your plan about discus numbers and strains ?
Is it going to be discus only tank ?
Are you planing an open top tank and do you consider puting lids on the top ?
I sure will be following your progress.
Re: my 125 gallon project
That is going to be an awesome tank. I hope there is a very comfy sitting spot right in front of it. :)
What kind of lighting are you running?
Can't wait to see what you do with it from here. Filip has posed a lot of great questions!
Re: my 125 gallon project
Hi Filip I'm thinking about going with 10 adult discus for strains I'm going to do a variety thinking probally 4 spotted 2 pegions 2 blues 2 reds and debating about throwing a white one in there not sure yet and I also have lids for the top and I'm adding a conapy for the tank just haven't put it on yet and also I'm thinking about going with cardnials tetras with a few fancy plecos but thanks for the reply cant wait to get some discus in there

Re: my 125 gallon project
heres a better picture thinking about maybe adding another piece of driftwood to the other side maybe a few rocks tooAttachment 108154
Re: my 125 gallon project
Another taller piece of driftwood with similar structure on the opposite side of the tank would def. look nicer .
And the LED's give the background much better colouring and natural look too.Nice lights .
Re: my 125 gallon project
like it.
is the bump out on the left functional or just aesthetic?
my 2 cents:
1. substrate, if you add in some gravel it gives more varied look than all sand.
2. i agree about more wood, and you could attach some ferns to the wood them as well. if you don't want plants, consider the root look people do

I only used 1 50 pound bag was more than enough for a 125 gallon
Re: my 125 gallon project
Love that background. Your fish are going to feel really lucky living there. I almost want to jump in myself!
