Ok, so I finished!!! It's finally all set up! Here are the remainder of the pictures.
Flame polished edges
Tank in place!
Mineralized soil + red clay ready to be mixed!
Sand + soil + plants
Everything in place and filled up
Axolotls added! The box the golden is in is detachable and only for when I'm gone for a weekend or so. Otherwise, he's got his own plastic container
More views!
And here are some happy axolotls in their new home!
I know this thread is rather old, but I am hoping to get some info on the set up?!?!
- Did you use the silica sand for a thin layer, the dirt for a thin layer, and another silica sand layer on top?
- What is the mineralized soil + red clay for? Where do you purchase it? What is the ratio?
- How has the tank held up over time?
- The flowing box, is that like a breeder box? Did you make that yourself or is that another DIY? Where do you purchase those? (I need something like that too)
The photos are amazing with the step by step walkthru. Amazing job!
