nikkipigtails · 11-04-2008, 11:05 AM

I so happy to finally see a tank using T5s as the only lighting. Proves to disbelievers that it's possible.

That tank is gorgeous.

Frankie · 11-04-2008, 12:20 PM

This is just one example of what can be accomplished within this hobby. His husbandry skills are quite impressive!
Along with the lighting pay attention to his water parameters. This is just one example that I have seen where success comes on all different levels.
