Looks Great!!

Where did you get the background? LFS?

[rickztahone]

that's a great looking tank. what is the footprint of it? as far as your stocking density i would suggest staying with what you have just do to the rays. if it weren't for the rays and the background (it takes up a good chunk of space) you would be able to house at least 20 comfortably.

Very cool tank. If mine wasnt a room divider I would totally have a fake rock wall like yours.

Very nice tank. I would also stay where you are at on your stocking since you have the rays in there. How big are those rays suppose to get?

Beautiful tank!

Impressed! Very nice indeed.

I would add 4/6 more discus...:):) Some nice yellows or white butterfly's...A big stump as suggested by Discusfreak would look good.

I really like Fluval FX5's. Nice choice in my opinion.

Well done..

looks good. The rays will outgrow it though

HI, very beautiful tank. Nice background. What type of light u r using? And what substrate for plant growth? I hv always wanted planted tank, but plants are not growing well. I hv a small tank of 26 gl. And have four 2.5-3" discus and one 4" discus. 2 boasemani rainbow one feather fin. Planning to add an adult discus soon. Iam having white sand. But plant grwoth became a prob for me.

i'm jealous, now to figure out how to convince my better half why i need such a tank... she'll probably make me stay in the basement and tell me to move into it along with the fish.
