    Looks nice, to bad you have to use fake plants though... Do you have a one-way valve on the airpump? I'm sure you do not want to wake up with 250L of water in those plugs one load-shedding morning...

    Can you tell us what fishes you have in there at the moment, or what type of tank you're planning?

    thats a very nice subrate you have there and a nice layout too, if that were a planted tank with real plants it would grow out very nicely..
