TotM December 2014

This month's Tank of the Month belongs to Evelyn Le!

Inhabitants:

• * Ryukin
• * Oranda
• * Comets

How big is your tank?
A triangle fish tank which contains 160 litres.

What equipment are you using (filtration, lighting, heater, CO2 gear etc)?
LED lightning, CO2 gear, a small heater, one built-in filter and one UV filter which are very useful to keep my fish tank clean.

What aquascaping have you done (gravel, plants, corals, etc)?
Natural coloured gravel, few small rocks, artificial plants and some extra ornaments from Coburg such as half broken ship, crocodile, coconut trees.

How much time do you spend maintaining your tank per week?
It takes me about 30 minute to change the water and test pH/Ammonia levels once a week. In addition, I spend another hour every month to clean the whole filter system and gravel at the bottom of the fish tank.

What do you feed the inhabitants of your tank?
Hikari Oranda Gold Fish Food from Coburg which helps to develop the colour of my goldfish. Sometime I feed them with some green peas to help them digest the food better.

Tell us some interesting/unique about your tank?
My fish tank is located at the corner of my dining room. It has always been the place where my husband and I keep looking at while having dinner. Having the fish is our happiness and we love watching them swim happily and healthy.
