    Many of you suggested I do this when you saw the storage tank. I decided to put a little twist on the traditional dutch aquarium style and a little stone boarder in the foreground. Loving how it's turned out and should look amazing in a months time.

      MD if you will lower water level to the bottom of Hang On The Back filter outflow ramp. Just that water would cover few mm of the ramp, water from the filter will not drop down to the bottom of the tank but instead will jet on the surface. Try it, on my filter AQUAEL FZN-2 it is like I described. It has small lip a the bottom of the outflow ramp, if I looked close enough seems your also has.

    As another commented, if you are planning to use plastidip or other peel coat paints put down 5-6 decent layers or you are going to have an impossibly hard time peeling it off. If you try to peel it off and find its difficult you can try adding more layers, letting it fully dry, then having another attempt. Make sure you do it in a very well ventilated area as this stuff is nasty toxic when being sprayed, and I often still recommend a facemask that filters organics (designed for painting, fibreglass resins, pesticides etc). Its much much worse than normal spray paint I promise you!
    I look forward to seeing how the tank grows up, gonna look amazing!

    Be looking forward to see this grown out. There is a lot of plants in this scape. To keep the price of them down requires a lot of propagation in advance.
    The waiting is always the hardest part, as you want to see the end results. Patience is an art that requires one to slow down and enjoy the process, sometimes we do well at it and other times not so good.
