Extra Lighting

Forgot to metion...
Along with the new soil, new fish new layout, ived added a new light!
Yes! Night is now day in the AR620-T.

I've removed the built in filter and added a Twin Tube Reflector.


It doesn't fit perfectly. (out by 5mm!!!) and its currently sitting on the inlet and outlet pipes of the Ehiem Cannister filter. So I need to build some little legs for it to sit on.

I got Steph to move the dwarf swords into the tank. they are now sitting in the bottom right corner... hopefully they will fill out the space there quickly!

Holy Crap!

Welcome to Hotel err Del Reef!

Ahh! If only I could start again... (Gives steph a quick look) Created by Octopus Designs, i think its certainly unique, a bit too modern for me, but it must float someone's boat.

New layout, new soil, new fish

Come meet our new children

Pizza Boy (Pigeon Blood Discus)


Melon the Melon! (Super Melon Red Discus)

Pizza Boy is the lowest on the pecking order. :( but hes faring well. We'll keep a close eye on them for the next few weeks

And the little tank got a makeover too

It recieved the large piece of driftwood which was in the big tank, and the spare anubis plants.

Originally we tried straining the nile sand to remove the red amano clay... but 4 strains later and wet clothes concluded that didn't work (still murky), so the tank is now clear of soil for now.
