    Dude, You are just being modest. It is a stunning tank man. Nothing wrong in admitting when you do something good. Your plants thrive in there and I'm sure your fish don't complain either.. That's that! Top job! :top:

    NIce. It's a type of tank you don't see everyday.

    Do the fish just swim above/in front of the grass and plants or they actually go in between the grass as well?

    P.S. Sorry if videos of your tank is available but I can't watch as Youtube is blocked

    @Vez - Is this a standard 1.2m. Is the glass 6mm? How long have you had the tank? What height stand is it on? Sorry for all the questions but I am currently looking at buying a 1.2x0.45x0.45

    @Vez - Does it have bracing at the top across the length (1.2m side)?

    @Vez - Sorry but are your braces across the 450mm width or across the 1.2m length? (ie are they 3 strips of 450mm long or 3 lengths of 1.2m)?

    @Vez - Thank you for being so helpful. That is different from the tank I'm looking at. The tank I'm looking at has the braces running the 1.2m length. I think I better start a new thread.
