Ooohh... an Eheim 2028! That's supposed to be a really good filter.

I thought so. Well, that explains everthing I suppose.

Progress report! :)

The tank has been cleaned/filled and Frick! and Radar have moved into their new home. Due to the amount spent on the tank and filter we don't have the funds for a lot of deco this month or for the above tank basking area we'd like to make.

So we split the deco between the old tank and the new one and made a temporary basking area for them. This will have to do for a month or so until we have the money to put into a really cool above tank basking area :)

This is an above tank basking area as well, as the tank is fully filled, but we hope to make one that actually goes over the top of most of the tank.

Anyway here are some pics :)

(Don't mind the thermometer, it was just there temporarily while I checked the temps to make sure I didn't bake my babies hehe)

Here's a little video I made to show the tank so far:

Bowfronts seem to make everything inside the tank appear larger. Little Frick seem to be having a good time....
