  • 25g Shallow Jewel

    in the cycling process.
    just wanted to share a few pics.
    What does everyone think?

    i dont quite know what i want to do with this tank yet, im getting a new large tank in the morning.

    so this is not going to house any large cichlids, i am thinking tangs, puffer, or gymnogeophagus.

    heres the current equipment.

    eheim 2213
    marineland 300gph powerhead modded with an eheim 2217 spraybar for surface agitation.
    stealth 250watt heater
    2x 13watt halogen lights.

    Not bad at all.

    Some nice rocks and you can set that scape off man.

                    Agreed, this could have been a clean reef tank too.

                    Good diemensions.

                          I think this might be a really cool tank for some Neolamprologus brevis.

                            Well, I have decided to go with a small fahaka puffers for this tank.

                            We will of course upgrade as needed down the road.
