This is just a short post with some pics of my feature aquarium in my house.
The tank is custom built to fit an old brick planter that was boarded up to make it appear as part of the house (pics of that job to follow in a later post!). The dimensions of this display tank are 1120Lx535Wx900H so it is very deep and long but not very wide. This works perfectly as a divider between our front door and living room. You walk in and there it is in all of it's glory!
I love keeping native Australian fish. This tank started with only local native species but has had a few more species of rainbows added to it. These are Crimson Spot Rainbowfish (Melanotaenia duboulayi) caught from the upper reaches of the North Pine River in Dayboro.
