I finally did it! I finally made the big switch to sand. I liked how the sand looked so much it inspired me to redecorate. I redid Pickles tank all in a brightly colored "sea theme" complete with a huge bubble blowing clam. He seems to love it. He plays in the big clam bubbles and spends lots of time walking along the sand!

I love your stand! Did you build or buy that. If you built it, what kind of stain/finish did you use?

oh, and the tank is very nice too.

Im- You haven't posted pictures in a long time. I had been wondering what your tank looks like.

So lovely. The rim and stand are a fantastic color. You picked the coolest looking ornaments and plants too ^___^

It's almost certainly a 90 gallon tank. A nice one, too.
