Love the background of your fourth tank.
Hey Fellas
Been a while since iv posted on here, so heres a few pics of all my current tanks. Currently have 4 tanks (3 fish, 1 frog) I shut down my ADA style tank cause it was just to much work for me to maintain. BUT i also made a new rather large frog tank for my Red Eye Green Trees.
This is my Australian native tank (formerly my frog tank) it has a DIY background made from expanding foam with peat stuck onto it, i dont really know how long it will stay firm for underwater but its been like this for a few months with no worries.
There are Threadfin Rainbows and Delicate Blue Eyes as well as some Red Nose Shrimp (all from Dave). All the plants are Aus native as well (to my knowledge anyway, except the moss)
Now this is my smallest tank, a little 2 footer that i havnt really found anything to put in haha, currently just got some Red Nose Shrimp in it. Plants are hairgrass / some kind of small chain plant and riccia.
This is the tank that started it all, my first tank, its a 4 footer, recently changed over to MH lighting that me and dad rigged up. Its seen better days, its also seen MUCH worse. I plan on ripping it up when i get back from the states next month and putting in some decent gravel.
And finally this is my newest put together tank, its about 3.5 ft wide, 3ft tall and 2.5 ft deep. Red Eye Green Tree frogs live in it, 5 of them.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!! TIME TO LAY BACK AND RELAX!

Personally I found the 2nd tank (the 2 footer) tank most interesting.
With a bit of maintanence, it can look very nice. Trim the fronts and the let the back grow more will help to create an interesting scape, especially with the "tree trunk" looking piece of wood.
Studying the water chemistry and nutrients is a science.
Knowing what plants to get and how to use them is an art.
Aquascaping is a marriage of art and science, the logical and emotional.
