From start to almost done!

Here is what I started with....than bought plants and a Castle......than got idea for cave under bowl than just took off the side going to be a pain to take out and glue. lol silcone 100% so they'll be easy to take out and clean right now there in there very sturdy. Let me know if u guys and girl like the cave under the bowl give me some feed back.

That's the gravel that was taken out the the tank, right? In what looks like a pantyhose bag?

This looks great! I want to get sand for my tanks, but I'm afraid of how hard it's supposed to make it to clean the tank.

ya that was a bag of old gravel and cleaning the sand is well worth the work easier to clean and the fish love it.Don't be afraid to change over just use pool filter sand AquaQuartz #20 was the brand I used.

i like your set up i really like how u made the caves very cool! have u thought about putting some sand in the bowl then put those big rocks on top of the sand? idk its just a thought i like the original where u had gravel in the bowl so i thought if you put sand in there it would look more filling but its just an idea, i love the tank and the sand really makes it look better, im wanting sand but i already have a lot of gravel im my tank and i dont wanna take it all out lol. lovely tank tho
