    Well, I've got the biggest equipment :0, but with regards to my Tanks are not so big at the mo!

    Would think that Henks Tank would be a strong contender!?

    Cheers!

    Would that include a good vacuum of the gravel, as well as trimming of the plants? Or just a quick WC?

    That's cool Henk. Dale mentioned to me when I saw him in December that you were going to be re-scaping your big tank.

    Was hoping to pop in and see your set-up, but time did not permit it.
