The 40 gallon dream tank

I need that guy to make me a submarine camera so I can swim with Bertha.

ALSO, the 40 gallon dream tank is set up! I will try to make a video tomorrow, or at least some pictures.
 
wtf, why does imgbb suck, maybe I need to use image tags.
 
Depending on the light and the angle a fish is looking at the glass, they either see you standing there, or they see a mirror. The only time the fish run into the glass is if I spook them. Some of my fish are easily startled and other ones just see me as FOOD TIME.
 
I suppose I shall have to learn that one of these days too.
 
"Decent" is the sweet spot. I wanted something better than my phone and wound up getting a DSLR. It's so fancy that I never use it because it's a pain in the ass. I need a nice point & shoot.
 
Amazon has some waterproof digital cameras for less than $100. You probably don't want to stick a camera in a pond, but I DO. lol The camera I've been using is an Akaso action camera (like a GoPro, but cheap), it takes fairly decent underwater video footage, but all the pictures are fisheye. I thought maybe I was using the wrong setting, but the only other camera settings for pictures are for taking timed pictures. I have spent so much money getting the supplies for this tank that I have to put myself on a budget for a little while. I'm trying to save up for new fish, too. BUDGET? WHO NEEDS A BUDGET?
 
I was trying to think about all the money I spent getting this tank up.

Substrate (the stuff on the bottom)
Fluval stratum - $20
Aquascape pond plant potting media - $11
HTP pool filter sand - $20
Aqua Natural Prairie sand - $15
Lava rocks - $6
API root tabs - $9
Seachem root tabs - $25

Driftwood - $40

hygger aquarium lights - $66

Fluval AC 50 filter - $53

Plants - $95

That comes to about $360. The tank and the stand were free, but if I had to buy them it would have added another $200.

YOU CAN'T EVEN TELL I SPENT NEARLY $100 ON PLANTS :rwmad:
 
At least you didn't just stick yoru fish in a bucket.
