Please post pictures of your tank!!

[vladimere]

Our colonies tank well one of two 6 foots by 3 foot by 30 cm high.Just after starting to set it up, latex bckgrounds will cover both sides the bottom and bck wall.A sump tank will soon filter both tanks atm we hve 16 plus axies. And the blue clam shells are where we raise our hatchlings(one of eight set ups our gold albino lays massive clutches)

Oh my goodness. I'd kill to have the space and money to have a tank that big!! I'd be over the moon decorating it haha. Plus it would mean space for more axolotls

Martin, that's awesome.

Yeahhh, that tank is huge i would be careful with your DIY light setup that it doesn't fall and shatter into your tank.

Do you plan on scaping it?

My tank ^^
Made with love for my Axies

 

[ilomilo]

Very pretty. I really like the first picture a lot. And the simplicity of it is just...Nice.

 

[dansmrcookie]

Thanks for the praise! I really like my tank, is simple and natural, just need put more plants, but I need more experience to do, it is my first.

Painting would be way easier than latex and cheaper. But still a nice setup!

im bumping it up again because i really enjoyed looking at all the set ups, mines not finished i have to remove things and re design but hey ill share any way, this is my 2foot that houses pipper, i also have a 4foot that houses dino, bugs and dandi but its to dark to see them.

Here's an updated photo of my tank....took all all plastic/ceramic/silk/fake everything and replaced with all live plants.

Great Tank Jenste!

Try to shoot a photo with the light of the ambient turn off. Just the light of the tank. Probably you will take a good result.

 

[Jenste]

That actually is the only light on in the room!
The tank light is being reflected up/away from the tank by the leaves of the floating water hyacinth. The hyacinth are a great shade making plant, suck up tons of ammonia and are light lovers.

 

[dansmrcookie]

hahaha good illumination on the room!!
Good to know about the hyacinth, I'm search for plants of my tank, at the moment I have just some moss. Received a new plant, but i dont know the name, I will post photos here, maybe someone know.

It looks perfect to me! I loooove the turtle; I had one too but the bubbles made too much of a current for my liking haha

I would remove the piece of glass and turtle and also take the plants out of their pots and put them directly in the sand, and maybe add some more sand so the plants can grow better roots. I also put a little ball of fertilizer under the roots.

thankyou thankyou!! i thought it was just way too cute to resist!! i'm not quite sure how it will go, i figure i can just detach the air if it's creating too much water movement

thanks for the feedback SanderB, i appreciate it, but may i ask why you think that?

 

[tusken raider]

Dans really like your tank, so simple but looks awesome. Upload more photos when you have added some plants.

 

[jessicaanne]

I assume the glass is for feeding them on Birdyy? I don't see a problem with it because it's really no different to having a feeding jar (which some people find easier as opposed to hand feeding etc). Yeah it's a cute little ornament to have, even without the air bubbles. I'm hoping to give my tank a more natural look by filling it with driftwood and plants
