Hi folks,
I have just worked out a deal for a 2,275Litre aquarium, very cheap ($220!).
Now, in a phone conversation with Pete Liptrot, he asked me what I was going
to do with it, something which hadn't occurred to me! What do you lot
suggest? The dimensions are 3.5x1.0x.65metres. I want apistos and was
thinking of having an Amazonian biotope, but with a proper "bank" plants
roots etc.. The big advantage with such a monster tank is that I can create
something much more realistic without worrying too much about how much space
each bit will take up.
I was also thinking about having some Crenicichla Regani and maybe Discus
(maybe not quite right geographically?), watch some interactions take place.
I would also like to let things take a natural course for a year or two, see
who comes out on top!
Lighting will be with 2x400W HQL (Metal Halide), substrate will probably be
peat with a cap of dark sand or gravel with (probably) substrate heating
cables and a wet/dry filter (one of my present tanks converted to the task).
Nothing has been decided so you can make any suggestions you like! I
probably won't have it until around about Easter, and will even then need a
few months before it's up and running.
this also gives me another opportunity to gloat!:-)
C:-)lin
