Very nice setup. Details, Details

How many gallons? How many discus? What types? What type of lighting?

I am looking to expand into a 6 foot tank soon like yours not sure if I want a 150, 220 or?

Very impressive indeed!

Hi there,
Thank you for the interest in my tank and for the lovely compliments i have worked very hard to get the tank to where it is today and it has taken alot of effort as for the cost it has cost me roughly between $4000 and $4500 to set up it as it is. As for filters i am running 2 external filters each pumping out 1500L per hour and i have a internal filter power head attachted to my home made Co2 system which is a easier way to set one up instead of buying one as they are rather expensive you can find instructional videos about how to make your own Co2 system on youtube it is rather easy to do. I am running 2 heaters in my tank as well and 4 lights and a air bubbler system. it contains 100kg of aquariam gravel 14 peices of sandstone rocks of roughly the same shape and size and 4 peices of drift wood of varying sizes. I hope you find this information helpful and once again thank you for you lovely comliments it is good to get feedback on all my hard work. I would estimate that it would hold roughly 180 gallons of water but don't hold me to that lol there are a few different types of discus in my tank that including a few different turquises pidgeon bloods snake skin red pearl red and yellow mellons 2 blue diamonds i also have 4 whiptail catfish 2 otocinclus catfish two flying foxes and 6 cadorras and 4 clown loachs and a sprinkling of neons and rummy noses and a large variety of plants.
