Here it is, the slow transition from one tank to another, you'll see his previous tank and his new one so far in the works. Once I get his tank fully set up I will adjust the title so you can all tell. But enjoy the pics of what I have done so far.

(don't worry the pictures make it look like the filter is touching the bottom it isn't, it's got about an inch and half before it touches the bottom.) What is to be added is of course the dock, his anacharis set up which includes two seashells and a flat piece of rock, his snails, his guppies, and his other little plant which will be put behind his new big one for him to go play in.

Here's the pics!

I used to use that filter. It works really well, so i still use it in my guppy tank.

Looks good so far .. :) Are you planning on leaving the bottom bare or are you putting rocks or anything in there? Just curious as to how others do theirs.

That first picture is of the tank when it was first starting that was his very first tank. So ok the tank is done and the pictures are put up, feel free to give me your input. And no gravel, I don't really care for it. So there it is the new tank setup! I'll see if I can grab a picture of Michelangelo.


Oh and by the way..I hate to add a background to the front which was my original plan since Michelangelo hates people seeing him..but gee golly I love the tank like this!! What do you think? If Michelangelo sees people he won't bask, but I really want to keep the tank like this but I don't want to hurt his health in the process.

I grabbed a few pics right when he went into the water, but I'll put them up later on tonight I want to see what else he does. He's hiding in a corner right now and sitting on the heater (which I hope is normal and ok it's set at 76.) Maybe tonight I'll catch him basking I don't know....

Aww it's so cute what I caught Michelangelo doing, he was sitting under the left waterfall right on the new plant he got, and letting the water hit him on the back and he had bubbles all over his face!!!! I think he likes this new waterfall!

It looks great! I can't wait to update Veronica to something that great. Is it a 20 gallon?

I think Michelangelo will have lots of new hiding places and will probably feel a bit more secure about basking in his new tank. :)

Yep it's a 20 gallon long, found it at a yard sale for 2 bucks. It was really dirty but it cleaned up very well!
