Okay, this is closer to what I'll do. Need to make smaller chunks of rocks for the path and not sure on the stones front left. Might place them around and let them add texture/depth with plants around them? Hoping this weekend to get the tank moved up onto the stand. Driftwood going into the...

I'm hopinmg I can start more people doing fresh lol's

Tree trunk laying on side front

I picked up some driftwood-various names and some dragon rock. This is what I've some up with so far. I think I need to make the rocks along the "path" much smaller and probably add rock beneath the middle "foot" on the left 3rd. The driftwood is 3 pcs. the main piece and the one long piece I'll...

what are cpd's Corys?

Yes, blue ram was on my list and ember tetras. Will check out checkerboard ciclids

I will let you know w hen I get that far! What do you have?

I did a planted tank for my 100 gal but literally knew nothing and the plants took over. I hated it. but this was a time before the internet and google were so good. Now I know more what I want and can easily research anything. game changer

I'm in research mode for any good community tank fish. I do like pencil fish. I want 2-3 large groups/schools and then some others for interest and centerpiece fish

Welcome. I too am coming from Salt to fresh. Hope you'll start a journal

Found this wonderful place when I put my 220 gal saltwater system up for sale. Wish I'd discovered this place years ago!! Starting a much smaller freshwater tank so I just started a build thread. Hopiing more freshwater folk get active!! Now to learn my way around here...

Edit: replaced pics of stand/tank from amazon to actual! My first fish tank as a child had sword tails that breed. I had a lot of swords and mollies back then. Since, I've had a 50g that got busted and then a 100 gal. Went to saltwater in 2016: 60 gal AIO to a 125 and then a 220 monster tank. I...

I don't as it has been far too many years since my last freshwater tank but I just sold my 220 saltwater set up and am returning to freshwater and a much smaller tank.

I have to tell you, my husband was like someone came all that way for a bunch of snails lol's. Obviously a non fish guy haha

Huge thanks to @mac96 for rescuing my snails. Some people would scoff and just toss t hem, but they are all 2-3 years old I think and the conch was one of my favs. So thanks again. Huge relief.

oh bless you. send me your number and I'll send my addie

I'm home tomorrow until 1230 if that helps Are you in Tracy?

if any one is in tracy, I have 5 snails and a conch needing a fast desperate home. I've got them in a small container with an airstone and changing water every day. they were left behind.

2 lbs for a 220 tank? Google said 1 cup per gal lol's. That was my thought with leaving equip. running. And if I let it sit a week, my entire house will prob. stink. (worse than now with a dirty empty tank lol's)

I've torn down my 220 and it needs cleaning. I'm planning to run citric acid in regular water (about 22 lbs citric acid) and use my cor 20's to circulate and a couple powerheads. Is it allright to run more than a week, run it while I'm gone (or shut pumps off and let it sit) as I have a trip to...
