scalowag Posted May 19, 2008 Author Share Posted May 19, 2008 Thanks guys! I redid the aquascape several times. This was the setup I wanted originally but I had too many big pieces of rock. My ideal setup would be like seedemtails' tank. More pics coming up soon. Link to comment

emberix Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 i have an extremely similar setup (20 gallon with a false perc, blue damsel, and coral banded shrimp) and I'm just letting you know that the coral banded will probably pwn those other shrimp once he crowns him self king of the tank. my coral banded has molted three times and tried to attach my clownfish and my hand!

scalowag Posted June 1, 2008 Author Share Posted June 1, 2008 i have an extremely similar setup (20 gallon with a false perc, blue damsel, and coral banded shrimp) and I'm just letting you know that the coral banded will probably pwn those other shrimp once he crowns him self king of the tank. my coral banded has molted three times and tried to attach my clownfish and my hand! What are the chances of that lol. I recently got some new fish and moved the damsels to my 10G because as expected they weren't cool with the new guys. Luckily for the other shrimp they live on the right side of the tank and the coral banded lives on the left side. Come to think of it there's a border that they really do not cross hahaha. This tank iz OFF THA CHAIN dawg!!!!!!! Definitely one of the best i've seen on this site.... I hope I can get mine to look 1/2 as tight when I get it up and running! Any advice for an amatuer like myself? Haha. Thanks drizz12. What size tank do you have in mind? I could give you a few pointers when you're ready to get started. For starters one point that cannot be stressed enough is patience. I sound lame saying it but it is a fact . Link to comment

ryno920 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 I really, really like that rockscape in your first pic. It makes me wish I had some better pieces of rock so I could try something like that. Link to comment

It makes me wish I had some better pieces of rock so I could try something like that. Thanks ryno. It took me a long while to get the scape to look good. I've recently added a few more pieces of rock and now it has an M shape to it. I'll upload a current FTS tomorrow morning - camera battery is charging . Link to comment
