Well, First of All Thansk for voting for my tank,
It was a very close race to the end,
and the second place tank was Awsume as well....
Ok, so
I reckon this thread is spose to go here.
See if I can flob this up lol.

Tank is an AllGlass 75 gallon I bought in 93,

The current List of fishe, plants, lights, ect in/on the tank goes something like this,
4Angel fish, 1 African butteryfly fish, 1 Dojo Loach,
1 spotted n 1 stripped rapheal-maybe, 0 white clouds, 12? mixed bristle nose plecos, 1 plattie, 7 Pulcher Kribs, 3 spotted corys, 1 bala shark, one danio
1 farlowella
Plants; hownwort, java moss, aponogeton's, hygro narrow leaf - sunset hygro and ? hygro, valisinaria, amazon swords, wisteria, crypts wendtii and ?, water sprite, Radican sword?
Plant ferts include - Jobes plant/fern spikes and flurish excel
Lights - 2 4' dbl shop lights, total of 2.13wpg
Filters, Two Hot Magnum 250s, both with fluval spray bar conversions on them, and a "80g rated I think" Azoo Sponge filter

My oldest BN

Fews Corys and a male Kribensis

My albino Dojo out and about,

One of my 3 fav angels

And for just for the heck of it, After several years away from fish, when I got my tank back from my folks, this is what is pretty much looked like when I started up again, pretty much from nothing.

then I start huntiing wood, rocks again,

and build up into a HUGE wood phaze,

It did get more wood as I found it,

then as time went on and several moves from here to there,
I slowly sold off the big wood I had and traded alot of the smaller stuff off, and got more into the different live plants once again, and it's all started and ended up where it is today over the course of about 4 years or so....

Hope you Injoy,
Thanks for your Votes again everyone,

Mr Aquarium

A Big Thanks to everyone, and everyone who Voted
I never thought I had a chance here to win one,
I will have to tell ya, this is the most votes I have ever had for a photo contest, before the most was 2 or 3.
I was sweating this one badly, after the shock of looking in on it before the last few days of voting to the suprise of being ahead, that alone floored me.
But I will say Thanks again for those who voted
