Hi All,

Looking for some "inspiration" as I've just set up a fish tank. It's a Roma 240 for anyone that's aware of the Roma tanks.

I like the idea of adding some Lobsters into it smile




I have added water and some plants

Over to you...

I see where you're all coming from with regards to the blue, but, it does look OK when you see it for yourself..

It will be tropical fish I will add to it as it will be heated (fresh water)..

Really like the sand look...

Has anyone ever taken the stones they have in the tank out and changed them for something else?

Looking good all.

I've currently pulled my finger out and I am changing my blue stones to black ones... What a pain!

Hi All,

Wondering if someone could possible help / pop me in the right direction.

As you can see from the below (pictures) my tank is an absolute mess. I used to love going home to my fish (in a non creepy way) but now I look at the tank and walk away pretty quickly.

I fear I may know the answer to my own question, but I ended buying one of those AV Blue lights (for salt water) as they didn’t have a normal ones (tropical tank) and my tank seems to have crap everywhere now.

Is this a simple fix of getting two “normal” lights? I’ve done a water check, PH levels etc are all tip top.

I need that love back again!

Simon
