COWabonga thanks for the nice comments and for posting my tank on RC.

Thank you Jose your tank looks good to and once it starts to grow in it will look even better.

As for maintenance and lifestyle there is very little at least in my tank. I just do 20g water change every two weeks and feed fish once a day.

i'll have to say, gabe...

zeo tank of the quarter are the crummiest tank pictures i have ever seen...they need a pro photographer (or something) to take pictures that do do their tanks justice. almost every full tank shot i have seen from them are blurry and lacking crisp detail.

the best zeo tank i have seen in person was eric's when he had his shop in upland. colors popped like jollytime popcorn!!!

killer tank btw mario!!! the growth and the intensity of the colors are to absolutely die for!!!

beleive it or not, the totm for zeo does not even use the zeovit system on his tank and the photograpghs leave a lot to be desired, nice setup though
