My fish have freaked out.

[PRC]

I've dedicated my entire weekend to doing dumb stuff with my tank. So I decided to put together a shadowbox for the back. I'm starting to get it all together, I decided to do a trial fit. I slid it onto the back of the tank for about 5 minutes. that was an hr ago. My fish are still in hiding. It must look pretty good.

Edit: My cardinal hasn't moved either. But that's because he doesn't know how to swim.

I'd be done with the thing already, but the damn paint won't dry because it's so cold outside

 

[OhNoNemo]

WOW,pretty cool ,gives the illusion of a very deep tank,i like it....too bad i painted my back black....i think that will look pretty nice..I may try it on my 30 gallon Angler tank.....i'm sure your fish will be fine..
Glad the guy translated the diagram to English:lol:

 

[PRC]

Yeah, the whole German thing was a PITA. Oh, they'll live...they just probably think a shark is coming. You'd think at this point they'd realize they live in a box.:D

 

[OhNoNemo]

Well,like my one thread "fish are stupid"......he did eat though...i have updated it
Can't wait to see how it comes out

 

[ggNoRe]

Very cool looking. Can't wait to see yours when it's done.

Here are some pics..not done..just started placing the cork on the bask for the illusion. You can barely see the piece i put in there as a test. You can see my foxface hiding under the arch...what a chickenshit.

 

[wontonflip]

Wow....looks awesome!

I swear foxfaces forget they're lethal...they're such big wussies!

 

[Smitty]

Oh wow, that looks good! Good job bro. :)

 

[reeffreak]

Hmmmmmmm,very interesting.What it needs is a horseshoe in the back.

Don't think for a second the thought didn't cross my mind.

I think I may have screwed the pooch on setting up the rocks..We'll see tomorrow. Paint is still wet..I started at 9am..damn cold weather.

 

[dcantucson]

What a great idea. Very cool. Did anyone see that Robo Snail auto cleaning device? I would so love to have one of those.

 

[PRC]

Just as I thought...I screwed the pooch...Back to the drawing board.

 

[ErinCahir]

What happened? It looks (looked?) so cool!

 

[coolhandgoose]

That's a really neat idea, hope it turns out after the proverbial pooch screwing.

The fake rocks that are made out of cork look like fake rocks made out of cork.
