I will post some pics after my upcoming move later this week, and I will also post a series of install pics setting everything up.

Should be fun given that one tank is over 1100L and four others are over 700L (plus quite a few small tanks up to 250L)

I didn't think the words "small" and "250L" should be allowed in the same sentence.

250L and discus isnt really that much. sure its a big tank but with discus you need large tanks!

My god 250L isn't big to me .... I start thinking "big" at about 750 litres and to me really "BIG" isn't below 2000 litres.

Great idea !
I've often wondered what tanks established longer than a couple of months look like. Hey Taksan, Aren't you a photographer by profession? You've probably got heaps to post ! & ladyred must have lots of tanks -are there
only red strains in them? cant wait to see. Great idea!! well done

Hi Vic, Taksan has taken some gorgeous photos of my tanks. He makes them look more wonderful than they actually are :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Lots of the photos are already on the forum, but I'll try to kid him into posting some more :wink:

Hey Taksan ! Waddaya mean? never gonna happen? Why not - Come on don't go all COY on me - you have shared enough written, balance it out by sharing a bit of visual guidance - as a service to the discus community LOL
you can't be shy about your tanks - impossible.
We may have to play dirty & come around disguised as a jehova witness (no offence to anyone!) otherwise
BTW
I had a look at some peoples "personal albums" but they come up not created yet?
I have no digital camera ATM - killed the battery which was supposed to be rechargable- by leaving everything overnight on as I tried to upload pictures etc. anyway I'll sort it out during the school holidays when I take a break.
Thanks ladyred, I have come across a few of yours and they look great ! but then I read that you have THIRTY tanks! and wandered what they were like?

Hey A.1 Fish-boy,
You're a friend of his, take in a secret camera next visit and when he's off making coffee etc snap a few- Clearly he's too modest ! to show his tanks
He did post some nice shots of fish - but the shots were all close-ups of the fish! LOL

I post a few select photos of specific fish ..... thats all you will ever see. There are reasons for this which given enough time you will understand.

ie: they are yet to make a camera with a wide enough lens to encompase his entire tank
