Hi all

Sold a lot of fish but there was some nano fish my wife wanted too keep so I told her that I would get her a tank and she would have to take care of it.
Setup the tank a little while back and here is a few pics.

Tank Boyu Refinement aquarium.
270x270x300 , 19L
Light upgraded to 14W Cfl Daylight
Filter HOB
Substrate Flourite

Not sure of everything in there yet and the background a little dark to my liking.
Kind of based on my Past the Old tree theme.

Setup the tank and put a piece of driftwood together.

Ja ja .. Looks cool - we have all done a tank that the other 1/4 was supposed to look after - you should know better.

Well if it doesn't get cared for it needs to go :) but she will.

Not sure why the pics came out so "vaal"

Nice looking nano.. Do you know the names of the small plants in the front? (The green one =P) And also the bushy one at the back.. I like the driftwood!!

i stand to be corrected but the small plants in front looks like some kind of anubias?

Really gorgeous tank setup! If I ever get 'too busy' for my 4ft tank, I will definitely downgrade to a nano - love it!

Skaapietjie, Henk Hugo is usually pretty good at plant ID's.

The bushy one at the back spiky moss.

Thanx Linxie the nanos always have something great about them.

WBS that movie freaked me out when I was little so let's hope none of that :)

looks great! that piece of wood is awesome. what fish do you have in there?

I love the cube shaped nanos. are these Boyu tanks readily available? if you dont mind me asking, +- what do they retail for? I think it would look super awesome with an iwagumi style 'mountain' rock and some white cloud mountain minnows.

must resist MTS..... MUST RESIST!

Hi Anine

There's a single endler female,dario dario and goby in the tank.
I paid R320 but think they retail at about R480 to R550.

I really need to change the background to a lighter blue. The black take
hides a lot of the features especially that of the wood.

Took me some time to get the right pieces and all of them together :)
