Zugara Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Here are a few pics of my 600Ltr tropical fish tank and a fishy pic. Quote
350 Russ Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 looks good mate! get on photobucket and then do as many pics as you like Quote
BladesGrant Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 You need to create a photobucket account and then just copy and paste the IMG code. Loads easier. Quote
Stew Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 use photobucket There are a few fishy people on here! Quote
philb1965 Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Very nice! Be good to see a few more pics. I'd quite like a tank in the house, but I have enough to do with my koi pond(all cheap mutts). Quote

Thanks mate.......... it took me 2yrs to get to this stage......... The way you get rid of them is to use a shringe and a very fine needle and inject them with vinegar........ Thats what I did........ Quote
Zugara Posted July 5, 2010 Author Posted July 5, 2010 Here's my other tank which I have on my wall in the Dining room........... That is really chic, love it... Quote
SunGodRA Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 I started tropical and went marine as well - had to sell up when I got divorced though Marine can be extremely expensive - my tank was 6ft x 3ft x 3ft and I reckon over 5 years it cost me approx £7k -live rock alone (fijian) cost £1200 and dont get me started on the filtration and plumbing! At the time though, it was well worth the money - I would spend hours staring at all the critters that came out when the lights went out and only the moon light was on - very therapeutic! When I move again (soon hopefully) I'm going to get a new setup - oh god - more money! Quote

terribleone Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Some nice setups here...but my god, these make my Koi pond sound cheap!! Quote
Zugara Posted July 5, 2010 Author Posted July 5, 2010 Some nice setups here...but my god, these make my Koi pond sound cheap!! So far to date, i could have bought 1 set (4) set alloys for my zed, Super exhaust system doubledin head unit lambo door conversion, and much more. Spent around £4000 since xmas last year, and just redesigning the layout again, so more pennies. Quote
