It certainly looks nice and clean. What size tank is it, and what size tank are you upgrading to? What filter are you planning on getting?

It may be the pic, but the leaves seem to be shading a lot of the light from the basking area... What's the temp? The bulb is a mercury vapor UVB light?

Now that is one of the nicest contemporary looking setups I've seen. I really like the planters and the basking platform. I also like the european tanks without the plastic trim around the top of the tank. It's very clean looking. :)

The tank is 54 liter ( 15 or so gallons i think) the new (used) is a 128 liter, that i got for for like 5 bucks.
Been looking for a xp 2-3, but the rena filstar products is not avaible in scandinavia :(
The plan right now is to get a fluval 405, to go with 128 liter... and when that tank is gonna be replaced, get a "aquael canister filter with UV ligth" and run it together with the fluval
Next tank is gonna be a 325 liter.
Think the picture is messing with you, the flat rock is fully exposed to the light.
yeah its a uvb bulb (euro zoo)


edit : Basking themp is at 33 - 35 celcius, water temp 25
