Looking good&#33; I hope you use all that water from the water changes to flush the loo&#33; http://www.thefishtank.com.au/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif Actually I see plenty of space for some more tanks....

On a serious note, you may end up with algae problems in the tank next to the window due to the sunlight hitting it, plus watch out for hot days, it may overheat..

I don&#39;t do anywhere near as many water changes as I would like purely because of the water situation. Needless to say it does get saved and used for watering the garden at least.

The tank in the window, I give it about 8hrs of sunlight a day, and then shut the curtains. So far so good and the plants in the tank are thriving as a result it seems.

Nice setup you got there marc you should get a fishroom started&#33;

also move that frontosa from the 2ft to the bigger tank

[Marc]

The frontosa is in the big tank. The very small one you can see is only 3-4 cms at most, growing him up a little before he joins the big boys http://www.thefishtank.com.au/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif

G&#39;day,

He&#39;s a nice looking fronty, how big is he? also how long have you had him?

[Ness]

To be honest, we weren&#39;t actually told how old he was.... so can&#39;t be sure. And we&#39;ve only had him for about 4 weeks now... but he&#39;s settled in great. http://www.thefishtank.com.au/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif
