Before anyone asks, the water has this redish collor because of the wood I am using in the enclosure.

Its not dirty water, im using filtering systems. Its just like many dark rivers found in amazon (Rio Negro for example)

As always, your cages amaze. Thanks for sharing. Are you using a false bottom, or just rocks and gravel in that last cage to lift out the landmass?

Thanks Scott, here goes the making off photo sequence..

1- The original glass (55x25x35cm).
2- I added 2 glasses to isolate the water (45x12 + 12x12).
3- I chose the best disposition for the barks and added earth.
4- A stone to hide the glass.
5- Side view.
6- The gravel used as drain.
7- A small “waterfall”(the same as pic 3, now with plants).
8- the same as pic 4, now with plants.

hi, very nice,


how do you change the water?
Hi robustum1,

As Im using filtering systems I dont intend to change the water so often and I guess as long as the fishes stay alive the water is pretty drinkble. If I have to change the water for any reason I may use a "siphon".
