I pulled this tank down (was fully planted) yesterday and moved my maingano colony into it. Added 5 clown loaches.
Will add more rockwork & broken pots when i find suitable ones. Also will be adding some electric yellows at some stage.
But this is it so far

Thanx wombat :)
I only have the 5ft above, a 4ft (200L planted), 3ft (190L planted), 2ft (88L small goldies) running at present.
I have 1x 3ft (150L being turned into a frog tank), 3x 2ft (68L-to be sold, 88L & 140L), 2x AquaStart 320 (28L), 1x 18L & 2x 1ft not running. I also have another tank i am picking up soon from my brother in law, its at least 2ft, but not certain on exact size)
Due to running out of usable water (house is on full tank water), i have had to cut back on running tanks for the time being at least. I am considering selling off my smaller tanks, but i havent fully decided.
