Default My current 33gl Setup

I currently have a 33gl Fluval Roma setup. Its had its ups and downs over the past few months. Its starting to get there with just a few more adjustments to make in time. I also have another 30gl setup in mind that i should be buying in the next few weeks

I have photos but i thought a video would show of things better (my 10gl fry tank is also on the video)




I shall keep you all updated with photos as the setup progresses and hopefully when i get my new tank

Default Re: My current 33gl Setup

So i have my 26gl tank ready and ive started work on getting it all sorted. Im on the most littlest budget ever to get this all sorted including lighting and heater. May take me a couple of weeks to get it all together and sorted lol.

Currently got the substrate/water and a sponge filter in to start

Pics so far (please excuse the mess around and the numerous amounts of reflections lol)


Step One (if anyones wondering about it being on 2 cabinets ive tested that they are level in height and the gap isnt as big as it looks on the pic its barely mm in difference)




Step Two, Just ensuring it was water tight




Step Three, Substrate and a filter installed ready

After much annoyance in sorting the newest 26gl tank out on a very low budget it finally is there with a building stock list The 33gl has had some minor changes with added plants. As i prefer videos below is the link showing my up to date progress on the two tanks
