Decided last night its time for a tank overhaul in the living room and a move.

Swell uk have 10% discount on all orders over 39 quid with free delivery.

Bought replacement t5s new reflector clips and more seachem matrix

Cant decide if i should move the pictus and angels to living room if so thats end of any shoal of small fish in large tank, they would end up sushi for the cat

@westonwarrior - This is the tank I want..

420 Litres so 30 less than my Vision 450 and without the depth perception the curved glass gives, but much more suited to the rest of my furniture.

It's actually a little lighter than my furniture but nothing a bit of wax won't sort out, I have the wax used by the manufacturer of the furniture and the drawer handles on the tank are almost identical to mine.....

Just need to find a spare 1200 notes! Also a little concerned about what any drips or splashes might do to the wood.

Yeah know the feeling, but with landscaping, filters and pumps etc it'll still be closer to 1500 notes.

Think I need to hold out and decide where we're going to settle and what place we're gonna buy before dropping that sort of cash on a tank that might not fit somewhere in 1-2 years time!

Thought I'd give this thread a little revival.... curious if any of our new members have the fishkeeping bug?

@westonwarrior any chance we can change the title of this thread to something more reflective of the content?
