What i have so far... 120 gallon long tank

[zach2011]

I am doing a 120 gallon tank with stream/waterfall/pond and a waterfall on the background. Im taking this slow but here is wat i have so far.

This is the tank before i cleaned it.

i sealed the sides and back with black silicone.

this is the "T" for the stream and the background waterfall.

I am using that mopani wood for the background waterfall.

Starting the Great Stuff (took 5 cans to finish)

Here is all of the foam cured. i added ledges and caves and even carved out a planter to add some kind of plant.

Ok I have finally finished the background and started the PVC pipe stream here are more pics of how far i got. suggestions welcome!















More to come soon

how tall is that tank. if you have 2 ft. vertically it could work for retf's. Judging by area of the bottom i would suggest pdf's.

[zach2011]

Its about 2ft tall i and a little bit over 4 ft long

sweet... that's better zach... thanks... oh and that thing's a castle compared to what most frogs are house in... that's great... this is coming along pretty well so far... about that "t"... in most cases whatever end is lower usually gets a higher flow... depends on your pump how much difference there is... a larger pump will produce a larger flow forcing water to the higher point wheras an under sized pump may not even get water to the higher point.... "y" fittings are better cause they don't restrict the flow as much and the water kinda splits instead of hitting a dead end so it reduces the whole different flow rate thing in some cases... in any case this might not be an issue, but better to be prepared, so there's my 2 cents... although with inflation it's not worth much lol... i like it so far and thank you for sharing...
