    Gotta be honest.. I thought the racking system looked pretty good, but the gallery looks absolutely awesome now you've dropped it all down to the one level. If it was me doing that I'd still be on the first rack.! Go go human dynamo.!!

    I really like that you've used that driftwood in two tanks now. It was probably hard in more than one way to use it again. I feel like you gave it new life after what happened with it in the 2000G. Also, it's nice to see your confidence growing with your scapes.

  • @kookiekake8289

    What you said about it being about the fish is sooo true! A lot of people are like why don’t you get bright colours and ornaments for them. I just try to explain that I prefer the natural approach rather than the crazy colours!!

    The Vieja look good in there and I’m glad you got to use that huge beautiful piece of wood (I really have to stop giggling every time you say “I took you outside and showed you my wood” - I’m apparently 33 going on 12 😂😂)

    Joey is working on something where the 375 is, I’m thinking he’s building another tank, cause he built the other 7 so fast. I think barbs and loaches either getting moved to a new tank being built where the 375 is, in that room, or they are going into the planted tank! Or new fish for the planted tank! Can’t wait to see Susan’s re do as well!🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

    I think keeping a really unique (but not necessarily difficult or rare) fish species in the last tank would be nice. I've been blown away with how many species of interesting fish there are that I rarely see kept, and introducing some of these species to more fishkeepers would be great.
