Any fishkeepers here? Saltwater or freshwater

Hehe. I convinced my wife to let me put the new 30g upstairs so I can use the 10 for a quarantine, and have a huge one in the theater room. She's coming around!

Just use the phrase, "if you don't like it, blame CP", if she starts to back down or give you any lip.

There's a guy on my fish forum that set-up a movie themed tank, ("Avatar"). It was pretty bad-ass! He used a lot of glow-in-the-dark plants and pebbles. He also had a black light and weighed down some plastic "Avatar" characters w/ flat pieces of plastic. I would think that all the plastic would leech toxins in the water, but he has a healthy tank of Glofish. Go figure.

I would love to do a large movie themed tank! Maybe one of these days.

Edit: Here's a pic of the guy's tank...

The plastic won't but I'd bet the paint will...

They were $4 each.

$4 really isn't that bad considering that they're not usually available at fish stores and places like liveaquaria.com has them listed for around $5 plus S&H. I'm getting ready to rehome some of mine, (which is why I asked what you paid).

I hope they do ok in your tank! If everything goes well, you will have a nice colony in no time.

The painted plastic on the figurines. Yeah, that was what I was meaning. I haven't checked the guy's tank log lately, so I don't know for a fact that everything is going well. I hope it is though. He put a lot of work and creativity into it.
