Planned Overhaul
so after seeing how amazing @Matt_95 17 litre rescape went I've been thinking about completely overhauling mine and rescaping etc etc.
One of my main gripes about this tank is the AIO compartmet. Although it's nifty to hide everything I think I can achieve nearly the same result with rock work. I'll also give me about an extra 2 litres water space, which in a tank this small is heaps more room! I really like how he has alot of open space on the sand bed and am going to try and go with the same idea. The mountain type effect I have in there now has alot of rock face that isn't usable for coral placement and can be laid out alot better.
On Sunday I'm going into work to tattoo a client flying in from Darwin (flies in Sat night, leaves Monday morning) and figured while I"m there I can redo everything. I've got enough buckets etc to make up at least a 80% water change, keeping some existing water etc for the livestock to sit in while I do this.
Going to try and pry off the back compartment, but if it doesn't look like it's going to budge I'll think of something else and make due with what I've got. There's just alot of dead space back there that isn't getting used and just collecting poop.
Of course photos will be taken!
