While I was researching for the ADA 60P, I came across multiple landscaping that I really wanted to try. Â I really wanted to try a layout using rocks as the center piece. Â Since you can only have one layout per tank, I really couldn’t do anything else with the 60P. Â Long story short, since it took me sooo long to get the 60P started, I found a few good deals through local vendors and I got a $100GC to AFA for my bday. Â I always wanted to have a mini tank at my cubical here at work…. so I ended up going home one day with a 6gal rimless tank! Â The brand new tank only cost me $20 so now I have the opportunity to start another tank with the standard rock scape layout. Â Since it took me so long to get the 60P started, I actually started both tanks on the same day. Â Currently the two tanks are sitting side by side. Â Hopefully in a month or so, I can move this tank to my work place. Â I plan on breeding CRS in this tank.
Here are some pictures:
