I Moved Alphie To A 5G Tank! =]

Post by jasminek on Fri Oct 16, 2009 4:06 pm

Hey All, My Elite Cool 21L (5G) tank went spare yesterday so today I decided to let Alphie have it, hes always had pretty big fins and since bought I feel he deserves a good life seen as when i bought him he was in a bad way. His fins are still curly at the end and not brilliant but there improving. I just finished the tank and its a bit basic, but monday i'm going to the lfs to shop around for the tank. Hes still floating in the bag and will be for a while longer yet, the tank has a cocunut cave, terrocotta pot, small peice of bogwood, a java fern, cambomba and a little plant. I'm going to go with mostly silk plants with this tank as of monday as the live ones just keep dying although cambomba stays brilliant, I'm ordering a light soon but i'll have to wait till i have enough money! I will let you know what Alphie makes of the new tank and will post pictures later! :D
-Jazz.

thanks tropical girl :D He seems to love the top half of the back wall, might it be because he feels secure? Because i have a background on the tank and it only covers the top half of the tank
