that compressiceps is amazing!! and where did you get all your lace rock i couldnt find any around where i live

[nyinfamous2k2]

@laxplayer3690 thanks , he was probably my favorite fish in the tank. Luckly I found some Lace Rock in a shop by me. it was about 45 min away and in this video theres about 60 lbs of rock, I added another 150 lbs which took a few months and many trips back and forth to the shop to accumulate but, It was definitely worth it. someone caught a bargin when I sold it. I paid around $5 a pound and sold all 200 lbs for $200.

Love the tank! some really nice lace rock you've got there, and really beautiful colourful fish! a quick question - what is the fish at 3:26 hiding behind the plastic plant? is it Aulonocara Jacobfreibergi Eureka Red? Thanks,

nice tank and fish. love the lace rock. I have alot of the same fish. great job

[nyinfamous2k2]

@bm20197 Thanks man, Yea I really liked the lace rock also, looked good and was benificial keeping that ph up. but expensive as F%$ lol. this tank went through alot more changes after this video, I darkened up the sand with more black, added about 150 lbs more lace rock and about 15 more fish. So upset I didnt get to document it before disaster struck. I went away over a weekend in the summer and had a heater malfunction cooking everything in the tank. def miss that tank. just sub'd back thanks.

@nyinfamous2k2 Yassss! :D haha :) -yeah.. it's really nice :D

[bm20197]

@nyinfamous2k2 Ya, i know, i paid 2.50 a lb but they wanted 4 bucs a lb. Its worth it though. I only got 50 lbs but allready think i want another 15 lbs. im still gonna do a vid later. That sucks about your heater, ive heard of that happening.

@nyinfamous2k2 they wouldnt show up at all i was getting annoyed lol..obviously..they eventually showed up lol...gosh i'm exhausted from looking all day yesterday lol but will keep looking...i need to find a new top ..a glass one..which hasnt been easy and impossible because of the shape and size..

[nyinfamous2k2]

@giggalz ha yea I see your getting alittle trigger happy with that mouse clicker lol. Find the size and model you want and check craigslist and ebay. I usually get most of my stuff used for a way better deal. only paid around $100 for that 125 gal tank and oak stand with glass tops. all in excellent condition. just have to look around.
