Please post pictures of your tank!!

I would love to see all of your tanks, dolled up for your happy axies! I know several people have their own threads with their sweet tanks, but maybe the mods can make this one a sticky for us all to referrence? I'm dying to see your creativity and maybe use some ideas for my own 55g tank.

Please and thank you :)
 
Here is my set-up
I am new to this so I am still learning about water changes and pH and all the things.
I havent done any water changes since I got Calypso about 4 months ago. I have added water to her tank only. She is very active and always comes up to the front of the tank when I get close to it.
She swims up to the top when I open the lid and we have a staring contest for the few seconds she hangs there. I have mostly fake plants, but placed 3 real ones in there the last month. I have a moss
ball by my filter, sand substrate and a log for her to hide in. Her tank mates are 4 Dannios and she tries very earnestly to eat them but they are too fast. She came with the filtering and cooling system located on the left of the tank. The tank is 30 gallons.
I will be asking a lot of questions in here~

we would recommend here separating the danios from the axolotl as the danios could very easily nip at your axolotl's gills. you'll find people in aquarium hobbies with mixed views on artificial vs. natural plant set-ups.

keep an eye on both nitrates and ph, water changes are required to remove nitrates and without keeping the kh renewed via fresh water the ph can plummet causing old tank syndrome (where the ph gets to low preventing the breakdown of ammonia)
 
Hey, 250L aquarium, went for paludarium setup for isopods (Dairy cow) in land area. I have a pump under land area surrounded by clay balls and gravel for filtration. Will be home to two female axolotls when cycled, setup 4 days ago.
I also plan to have a colony of gammarus (Freshwater shrimp).

Herobrine and Alex's tank so far. We have some floating minecraft character decors to go in but their 3d printed resin so we are in process of coating them in spray on aquarium safe silicone spray coating and 48hr to ensure good curing time first just in case.

My tank exactly 3 years ago,

My tank today.
The plants community has evolved a lot, with Bacopa amplexicaulis and Ceratophyllum demersum dominating the scene.

    Hey everyone, just want a little advice. Its 55 - 60 celcius in my Salamanders tank. Hes curled up and tyring ti bury himself, Im assuming hes too cold. I was wondering if he would benefit from a heated rock cave (since he LOVES his cave) that I could set on low? I NEVER see him curled up and trying to bury himself unless his tank sits at 63 degrees celcius or lower. So I am assuming hes a little uncomfortable.

    He also seems a little sluggish, again, assuming hes cold. Having heating trouble with the new house right now. What do we think? Was thinking of grabbing this for him since its got very low, medium, and higher medium heat settings that exude heat downward inside the rock cave but ALSO exudes it UPWARDS outside of the rock cave, effectively keeping the tank itself a little warm. Seems like it miiiight be a little small for him though, my guy is about 7 inches from tip of his nose tothe tip of his tail. What do we think? https://www.amazon.com/Reptile-Simulation-Adjustable-Temperature-Tortoise/dp/B0CH1DPGBC
