    Hi all,

    Had some free time today, so just to share my 5ft tank rescaping. Tank water a bit yellowish because of the new driftwood.


    Frontal pic of the tank. This was the max distance I could shoot with my camera.


    Right side of the tank.


    E.Ozelot.

    Beautiful setup, do u have extra E.Ozelot, they look nice, a small stalk will do.
    Don't bother if its Black cats or White cats, so long as it can catch Rats. Its a Good Cat.

    Hi Vincent, tank doing great. I have about the same type of plants as you in my 5ft.

    Do you have more than one filter? Happen to notice the intake and output pipes on the same side of the tank and wonder if it would be causing some stagnant areas in the tank if using only one filter.

    TTL,
    I will have some ozelot to give soon. Will pm you when it is ready.

    Simon,
    Just planted those stemmed plants not long ago. Will prune them to give bushy look as you have suggested. Should reduce the height to about half right?

    Koah Fong,
    I am using 2 filters; Pro II 2028 and Ecco 2133. Previously, the tank used to be aquascaped as a divider with the filters all tucked near the wall. Circulation is not very good and it is difficult to aquascape. Now, I am pushing all the plants to the back of the tank. However, I am not changing the location of the inlet and outlet as it is very tedious with all the piping and electrical stuff in the cabinet. How is your 5ft? No update on your tank recently.
