I'm not going to breed anything(I wish i was), Its just the name of the tank, any "breeder" tank is a wide tank. This tank is almost 1.5 feet long! Thats a good thing though so you can aquascape.
Looks good. nice clean setup
Thanks alot

How does the aquascaping look?

 

[drewsta]

I like the aquascaping. If I were you I would build 2 islands with free space in the middle for fish to swim around in I have always personaly liked the island look

 

[reefdude37]

I was thinking about that but I dont want to mess up the aquascaping, I think I might give it a shot

 

[reefdude37]

ok well, I gave it a shot, and failed, so i just stacked it up into one big thing
