Last night Ollie (Mr_docfish) made me a glass pH probe holder.....pure genius!!!! It turned out really well and fits the tank to the millimetre....It looks almost seemless in the tank and I'll be getting him to make me another more 'complex' one for the new tank, only he doesnt know it yet

I have ripped almost everything out of this tank and am not sure where im going with it at the moment. I was starting to concentrate on Mosses and Pellia but have not had much time to spend on the tank lately so its very barron.....I will get back into it soon...

I will have to make a more intricate one with two clips (will try to find clear ones) so the probe wont swing around, especially if larger fish swim up against it in your larger tank.

New scape...Im not too keen on it but I want to start growing more mosses, the surface area on the rockwork will allow me to do so. It should look okay once its finished...I just need some Flame Moss now

BTW very nice tanks you have there, did you take our the grass and replace it with crypts ? or is that a different tank ?
where do you get hold of the ADA equipment ?
