Insane's Shallow Nano Build (Need overflow advice, stuck)

No it's not all in there. I had 3-4 extra pieces so I was able to find the best scape that I could and put the rest of the rock away for my next tank or if I got bored on day and wanted to change some things up

 

Thanks for the link. That is a rad scape, kinda how I did my last tank, zip tie the rocks to make overhangs

 

BRO!! Its gonna be sick (if it already isn't)!!

If I were to have exactly what you have going, and it does cross my mind every now and then, Id consider going 100% tonga rocks, minimal amount. When I did my scape, I used this to "cement" all the rocks, and I love it.

How do you like the T3i?? I thought i felt something wrong about the pics (in a good way), turned out it was DSLR photoz!!

 

Haha, apparently Flickr contains metadata? I love it. These were shot with a 40mm f2.8 pancake and the Yongnuo 560 III was off camera sitting on top of the speaker as you can see in the pic. Haven't even tried to shoot a tank yet, but been doing lots of playing with OCF shooting my little nephews.

I take it once you use that cement that you can't get the rocks apart again?

 

Ya, if you see my scape, these rocks are two solid pieces. I used to have the scape ziptied, it was never stable. And no you cant take it apart unless you use a chisel with a hammer.

Im so glad that you got a DSLR tho! Shoot tons of pics in a lot of various situations (in/outside of house, under different lighting etc). Didnt know Canon made pancake lenses! Would be awesome to carry around.

What are you gonna use for the water movement? WP25? And any plan for SPS this time??

 

Yeah my ziptied scape last time was never stable. I've had the SLR since early this year and it's about half worn out already lol. Canon's 40mm pancake just came out last year I believe, so it's new.


I honestly don't know about water movement. I don't even know what a WP25 is lol. I was thinking about an MP10 but honestly haven't got that far yet.

 

Subscribed luv those shallow tanks...

 

OH and yes exactly, there are plans for SPS this time.

 

Quick update, got moving on the stand alot faster than I originally figured due to a friend helping me feed wood through the table saw.
