85 Gallon "SIMPLICITY"

[lamthuyduong]

85 gallon with 2 blue turg and 1 blood pigeon. Can't wait to get discus from Kenny next week, if he has any left.

Really great looking minimalist tank!

That is very nice the simplicity of it works. I would lean torwards a background to hind cables or tie wrap them together to give it a neater appearance.

Thank you. I thought about a solid black background to hide all the tubings and cords but now it's kind of hard to put one in because I would have to move the tank to get access to the back.

Another stunning set up.
Well done. Mine never look like this.

Nice! Where do you even buy a 85G tank? That's not a standard size is it? Did you make it or custom order it?

I have posterboard taped to the back of my tank. I only needed an inch or two to get it in position. Might be something to think about.

I'm using a light blue poster board as well. I really like it and it's not permanent so I can change it up if I get tired of the color.

Nice setup. I also like the simplicity of it.
Are you doing anything special for the anubias to keep them that green? Or just light?

On my 120g gallon I had used background that was to short to use across so I used vertical on the 2 ends and left the middle visible to the wall. I then made sure my wires and tubing only went behind the ends.

-The tank was custom made. It's not standard.
- I'm not doing anything special regarding the anubias. My water is always crystal clear. I'm running a 5lb Co2 tank at around 2 bubbles per second. I dose k, N, p, once a week. I do 30% water change once a week. I have 130watts of T5 lighting for 7 hours a day. Never had algae problems.
-I'll probably buy a solid background from petsmart and tape it to the back.
