New Juwel - a few pics 3 years, 4 months ago #20031

Hopefully a few pics of the new Juwel - and Oscar.


Yes - I *do* need a step-ladder...


And, yes, he did have to fill most of the tank with the cat on one shoulder...!


The tank filled and planted - but still a little misty whilst the filters kick in.


The tank a few days later - with Homer loving the new space.


Homer looking happier at last...


Homer looking a little less happy - showing off his colours cos he wants feeding!

great looking pictures. you can re-size the photo
at photobucket.com. 640 x 480 fit-in at the screen.

your water is still misty. reminder: please do not
clean your filter for a while to established your
good bacteria colony. it will make your water crystal
clear.

hehe sorry for the huge pics guys (my mac browser automatically resizes them, so I forget how big they are if i don't resize them ).

The tank is 400 litres - aprox 88 gals. I've kept Oscars before as a kid, and we've had a Juwel community tank for about 5 years - but this is the largest tank I've ever had. The last Juwel filter system was a breeze to maintain - and running both the internal Juwel and external Fluval 405 seems to be keeping all the levels perfectly.

I'm keeping fingers crossed over the plants - maybe Homer will be one of the few Oscars who *likes* plants (he didn't touch the ones in the smaller tank - and hasn't shown any interest in them now either...). We're happy to risk it for now though - I'd rather keep a green tank, since it's in our lounge, and if you don't try, you don't know...

i am not sure about the plants. it is normal
character of an oscar to uprooted all plants
and bulldoze the substrate. i wish you good luck
