Laying Acrylic as Tank Base - Page 19

Fish Love · 04-08-2013, 01:21 PM

One qns for the IT expert here. For IT keeping, my tank background is black oyama. Will it work if i only install white base but background remain black oyama, sides and front remain transparent?? Do i need all to install all white except front view inorder for IT to have optimum Kim kim result? Tks for advice.

Hi guys, encouraged by this thread, i decided to make one too.

1) Drafted out my tank measurement. Chosen Ivory colour, 3mm thick.

2) Went to Ubi Dama to customise it.

3) Took out my drift wook and place it back after inserted the base and back ground acrylic. I did not use any rubber stopper for the standing piece but it is nicely supported by my heavy drift wood.

Before:

After:

Conclusion: i observed fish become livelier than before. Esp tiger. Dark colour morph has tone down alot. Mission completed. It was a successful one and i really enjoyed it. Tks for reading : )
