Aspiring Aquascaper
Hi everyone!
So recently I had ordered my custom tank and picked it up, very happy with it, in hindsight should have made it 40" long instead of 36" long for a even more panaromic aquascape.
36" x 13" x 14.5"
Originally I wanted to put my bonzai wood but now I'm not too sure. Also got finnex planted+ 24/7 light.
Sleek!
The controls
The structure on the right is going to be my waterfall. For the left side I was originally going to either get manten/sansui/koke rock but it's sooo crazy expensive that I gave up those type of rocks.
Then I went to a landscaping supply warehouse and got these two big rocks instead, they were labelled San Juan pond rock, total weight of these two rocks was 25lbs @ 16 cents per lb, plus tax = $4.48 only! ! Cheapest stones I have ever bought, not counting the ones I got from mother nature Compared to manten rock though, of the same weight will be like $200+ !
A little concerned about the weight of the rocks but I think should be okay, what do you guys think? Is the weight too much for the tank to be unsafe?
This is my hardscape so far, I'm trying to make a mountain scenery that I saw when travelling in taiwan, possibly a pathway, a waterfall. Don't know if I should still put the bonzai tree.
