For years I suffered with a bare bottom tank. I didn't like it, but then I didn't like the alternative either. A gravel bottom was completely out of the question, and while a sand substrate was better, I still didn't like the idea of providing a place for all those pathogens. Nor did I like the increased maintenance required to keep the sand clean. The other thing I did't like was sand scratching the tank during cleaning. So then I began to experiment. The purpose of this post is to present another alternative that I have come up with that some folks might like as much as I do:

Re: tank bare bottom tank
rick,
To be fair, those discus could be in a terrible looking tank and they would still look amazing! That is a gorgeous group!

Re: tank bare bottom tank
Paul, I was commenting more on the overall look of the group. It is rare to have such a large group like this and have all of them look as great as these do. Great pattern/shape/size to all of these. Add to the fact that he has some heckled in the mix? It's a killer group. Hence my comment about even if they were in a terrible looking tank, they would still look excellent

The bottom of your tank looks amazingly clean. How often to you have to clean it?
