Yes , it has been a while. For users in Europe this site has some shocking performance issues around, I think, the google ads. Anyway, this tank is no more in use as a display, but it does function as my sump on my 180flat (52 *36 *36). Of the early livestock the hermit crab mentioned very early is still going strong (in a nano currently) and so is the 6 line wrasse. I'd have to see what else is mentioned as livestock, but the bicolour angel was sold (foolishly). The shrimp (which along the hermit were the first livestock) died middle last year.
I was pretty satisfied with the tank - it demonstrated to me that the careful aquarist could buy and setup a tank that was successful for a lot less money than people think (especially with the onrush of overpriced all in one nanos). All of the kit is still in use personally except the T5 fisture I sold (also foolish as I could it use it now for the nano).
I hope it made a thought provoking read. |
