HarleyMan's Tanks

Finally figured out how to use the Photo Album Gallery properly for pictures, so I now have pictures of all three tanks uploaded and placed there.

The 30g has 3 females in it and is divided using the plastic canvas you get from Wallymart and divider spines. Took a while to put it together as I had to stitch parts of the canvas together with fishing line. I still have to be careful when opening and closing the lid to feed the girls as the slightest movement causes the canvas to move, creating gaps that allow them to slip though and start chasing each other It is a temporary measure since eventually the tank is going to used for some Angelfish - Koi ones if I can ever afford them

The 10g houses 2 males with a PenPlax divider that I bought before learning about the DIY divider. The pearl male will be going into his own 10g in a couple of months and both of them will have their tanks redecorated.

The 55g houses 7 Bloodfin Tetras; 10 Neon Tetras; 2 Otocinclus Catfish; 2 Corydoras Catfish; 1 Black Japanese Mystery Snail; 1 Gold Japanese Mystery Snail. The 4 Angelfish I had in there all died within a week of getting them which was due to a bad batch from Petsfart. All plants are plastic and gravel is generic black LFS stuff. It'll be getting an overhaul in a few months as the substrate is going to switched to silica, now that I have found a supplier, and plants will be switched to live ones. Not sure what I'll do with the plastic ones since SWMBO would most likely get testy if I wanted to just throw them away.

All the Bettas are eventually going to be housed in a specially built display stand that I'm currently working on and the 10g's will be either be used as hospital tanks or fry tanks.

Once all that is done and all other items on the 'honey-do' list are completed, I can then press forward with the BIG Marine tank. If my wife was as enthusiastic about the hobby as much as I am, it would all be done the other way around

Enjoy the pics

Hi Kate,

Yup I miss it Years ago I had two 55g saltwater tanks, 1 was a fish only tank with a pyjama wrasse, lionfish, batfish and a bicolor dwarf angelfish. The other tank was a reef setup with various soft corals, a mated pair of clownfish, a mandarin fish, a royal gramma and some cleaner shrimp.

I eventually changed the 1st tank's occupants to 6 yellow/gold seahorses (wild caught) and 6 firefish before I had to give up the hobby, along with 2 georgous british blue cats, due to kids coming along
