My 200 Gal planted Angelfish tank

Hey all...

Finally i took some time to take a couple of crappy pics of my large outdoor Angelfish tank. Tank is low tech 200 Gal (8ft Long), fully planted, 128W + natural light...

Fish: (11) Angelfish, (6) Serpae tetra, (8) Black skirt tetra, (2) Flame gourami, (6) Clown loach.

Plants: Hygrophyla difformis, Egeria densa, Bacopa caroliniana, Anubias marble, Echinodorus, Vallisneria americana, Ceratophyllum submersum, Hydrocotyle verticillata, African fern, and some others...

It used to be a Walstad style natural tank, but i had to tear it down due to a severe algae outbreak because it gets too much sunlight. Several fish and plants died in the process, but its slowly recovering........

i dont have too much time to take care of it right now, because i'm extremely busy w/ work and my upcoming baby son but hopefully in the next months i'll be able to bring it into form and finish the sketchy provisional stuff... and take better pics

Wow very nice! I love the tank but I dont envy the water change. LOL

EDIT- I just noticed all the plants around the tank as well. It almost looks like its outside...very cool.

That fish tank is absolutely stunning, the best tank ever. How long did it take to make it so beautiful? How much did it cost too?

Nice tank That is really cool that you have it outdoors. Do you find it harder to keep the temperature constant? Thanks so much for sharing the pics
