This tank is not mine by any stretch of the imagination. But I would love to have a similar setup. I just had to share this video with you.

Yes, that is very authentic. What makes the tank even more eye-catching is it contains quite a few small fish, unfortunately I think there would be problems if you put an Oscar in there?

Maybe true Penn. But I am not sure of the type of fish the larger ones in the video are; I think they actually arent much smaller than an Oscar. I think the tank might just be large enough to make the fish look smaller.

I could be wrong on that part. But either way,I absolutely love the naturalistic aquascaping.

Very cool!!!

Those larger fish in there look like Sevs to me! In which case, an Oscar would be a bad idea with the little fish!

my comments are targeted towards the tank setup, as far as decor, background, etc. I am not concerned about the fish in the tank.

Thats a nice tank, and i think it is a big tank.

The fish are not small, i would say the larger fish are around 8 to 12 inches. A full grown oscar would look small in that tank

Yep, I agree, love it....but an Oscar would have that intricate branch set up rearranged on the ground in two minutes and be missing some skin in the battle......

one apect that I was curious about is the background. I am wondering if it is a 3D background or it is a photo background. I asked already also.

My guess is its a 3D, but if it isn't... I need to find that photo asap.

couldn't have put it better myself. and it would be pretty bare with my arowana too
I love the tangled mass of root look, but worry about damage to fish too. if I ever manage to own a larger tank, its the look I hope to have.
