Bulldogs 8fter
This is my latest obsession.

Unfortunately I'm on a budget that really shouldn't include an eight foot tank.

I got the tank off of an old Reefer at Banora Point, he had been keeping FOWLR tanks
for the past 20 odd years. Once I got the tank I set about building the stand and getting everything else together.

Lighting:
I cut three holes in the roof and have installed three 300mm solar tubes from Bunnings. At the moment we don't get a huge amount of light in winter due to the number of trees at our place and the neighbors. So I'm working towards getting some decent supplemental lighting.

Aqua-scape:
The previous owner of the tank had three large rocks that I had to include but they are the source of my phosphate problems.

I will upload some photo's when I get the chance.

TBC.
