i really like this setup. Not sure what a tang setup is suppose to look like, but this is really cool. I think this would also be a really cool native texas setup

thanks:)
i thought about doing south americans in this tank, but i LOVE tangs, so they will be in hear to:)

i have to run to home depot to pickup a light for it, and then its done.

im thinking of trying a 24" xenon light fixture with 4x 22 watt 5,000k xenon bulbs.
i wonder if it would give it a nice shimmery effect like halides

i like the kiku fire tip brichardi, i want a pair of those in this tank, with a couple julies and maybe a calvus.

This is a really nice set up. It looks so natural.

Can't wait to see it with fish.

thanks man!

You'll need more filtration, the Smartfilters are good filters, but not enough for a 20L. When the Birchardi breed they'll probably kill everything else in the tank, just a heads up.

I know, I plan n getting a 2215 or 2217 for it.
I will run the canister under the 29g stand which is adjacent to this tank.
And I run the hoses to the tank from there.

Very nice!
