Hi! As I have discussed with a few fellow members with 12 gallon long tanks, it would be nice to have a thread dedicated to just 12 gallon long tanks. Its basically a thread dedicated to our small 12G long community in hopes of keeping it always exciting and drawing new interests everyday. This thread is open for ideas, questions, suggestions, etc. as a whole. Whether you already have a 12G long, looking for ideas how to design it, or simply thinking to get one, I want this thread and its members to help you in whichever way possible :biggrin:
Goals:
* Have your very own community focusing on 12G longs.
* Learn, inspire, share & support (Remember it as L.I.S.S).
* Give RAOK(s) from your very own 12G tank(s) for newcomers or to those in need when you have extra.
* Have fun! This is what it is all about

sorry but i didn't know where else to ask.
for those you ordered mr. aqua tank from marine depot, is the shipping really only $17?! it's not in stock and i was debating on placing an order, depending on the price of shipping. damn.. i wish i didn't check now.
yea i saw that. just wanted to confirm if that was indeed the price others paid. so low for shipping, i was considering buying the other brand but shipping was around $60 bucks.
I thought the RAOK was 12g rimless. I was drooling already. Hahahaha.
Well, since you guys are expert on 12g, I have a question. Someone was trying to sell this 12g ADA rimless, it looks sexy. And it comes with eheim filter, but not sure what model. Is $70 too much?
Awww NeoShrimp. There I went and did a RAOK this afternoon and hadn't read your suggestion yet! I could have done it for the 12 Gal Rimless folks.
I won't enter for your RAOK cuz I couldn't keep it alive yet--what a totally boss carpet you've got there!!! Now I'm going to think what I could contribute as another RAOK.
Hmmm.....:icon_idea going off to stare at my empty tank and think.
On another note, fishykid said he'd make me some lily pipes for the new filter after I get to Lowe's for the tubing I need. One step closer!
Sox, no worries. There will always be a next time and thank you for being a club member. Much appreciated that you could help make the 12G long more enjoyable for any other members whom might have just thought of getting one to actually getting one from all our pictures : )
Yes Martin is such a sweet guy and makes very beautiful tubing. I enjoy it so much! :icon_mrgr
Neo, are my little tetras going in here?!?! Id love to see your tanks sometime. Feel free to come with your bf when you guys want the tetras. always love tank critiques
I believe in time the neons would grow large enough to pick on the babies, especially when you have so many in there. I have seen neons grow this big
(-------------) and that size for sure they will harass the babies. So far I only seen Chili Rasboras as the "compatible" fish companion
I got mine for christmas and must have stared at it for a full month before I actually engaged in scaping it. I couldn't figure out how to do what I wanted at first.
You might be able to see the book of ADA there.....nothing but trouble lol.
First pic is of my version of power sand: pumice, some BW bebi and some special organic fertilizer loaded with beneficial bacteria, michorizae, and enzymes. I figured if it's all about the "micro-fauna" then I had better bring it. Plus, I do organic landscapes so I just couldn't do the osmocote caps if I was to remain true to my ethics.
Next two pics is my first serious try at scaping it. I looked at it for a few days and found I liked the empty tank better. NEXT
Next two pics is after a couple more tries. I was satisfied w/this for now.
When I start a journal I'll get some newer pics up.
