setting up the calvus tank, atlast!!!!
This is the second time I am setting up a calvus tank
The first time I setup the tank even before the fish landed in India
I had to pack the substrate and the decor as it is for almost 2.5 years and just few days ago received my first calvus
Now I have got a new tank for these beauties
Here are a few pics

Wohooo
I can see some wonderful images coming
Whats that thing on the tank? Is that a lid or a light holder?
Do you have a low seating arrangement in this room? The other tank in the second pic has a very short stand it seems.
Cant wait for more pictures.

Don't only practice your art, but force your way into it's secrets, for it and knowledge can raise men to the divine.

And its not gonna help when I shift them from their tank to the new one
Its a lid made of acrylic will help me light up the tank better
Its almost like cheating
Actually there's no seating in this room, save for the computer table chair and my old study table chair
I have purposefully kept my larger tanks at a lower height as it helps me reach the bottom of the tank during water changes
Can't wait till I set it up

Re: setting up the calvus tank, atlast!!!!
After getting some time to work on the tank I was able to affix the background to the new tank
Which is a plain black sticker, I am partial to such as it adds depth and is comforting for the fish and helps these specie to gain their dark colors
And here is a pic of the rocks that I had saved from a long time for the calvus
