The others are also viewable again, but not subtitled yet:

Another one, no subs either:

I like the tanks, but the fish used are too miniature. I think a school of big fish, like Dorado's form the Rio Bonita, Brazil, would look much nicer, or some hub cap size discusfish.

Note large wet/dry filter and overflow.

Wood set up has a lot of similar issues and processes. I've had plenty of wood move like this as well. Easy to fit on small tank, not so easy on a large tank.
Also, see the workers hanging upside down? Headache after doing this for a few hours, really bad ones. Hard to digets food when your gut is upside down and pressed against the side and top of the tank hanging down.

Hey dutchy, thank you posting the working links. I fixed the original post to reflect the now working videos.

I don't even want to think about having to trim all that Glosso and Stauro in that big tank.....

**Tom Barr** · 06-01-2012, 12:08 AM

The gloss will need a good hack about once every 2-3 months.

Even Amano failed many times before.

**Tom Barr** · 06-03-2012, 06:22 AM

He's screwed up plenty, so have I.

So when you do......does not quit and think all is at an end.
Fix it and try and not repeat that same mistake.

Everyone does, sooner or later. Often we get lazy and assume everything is ok.

Such is life, there comes a time when we all fail at something however whether you continue or quit determines your eventual success or total failure. Tom/dutchy that is so true, there were times I was disappointed and frustrated with the way things turned out but I kept going.
