T&M Tank is Taylor and Matt’s Tank. It’s a 20g long. Build started September 3, 2023. It’s gone through one crash and many newbie mistakes. Come with us as I update this thread to see what we learn and how we solved or attempted to solve problems as they arose. It’s been a long journey from then to now, but from a newbie standpoint, I love the tank now and the knowledge and journey it’s had. Cheers to T&M!
This is the first night of setting it up. I was super excited as I’m a fresh newbie, and Matt has had a couple tanks in the past. Roughly 3years has lapsed since his last setup.
We had sold a car and decided to cave in on getting a tank. So, we went to Petco for supplies (yes I know, almost everything got upgraded later on).
We got a 20g aqueon long, aqueon filter, heater, wave maker, sand, rock, decor (which ended up being taken out), salt, water, starter, and two lights if my memory is correct. . .
After finally getting it all setup and laid out how we want it, we filled her up and spent all night discussing future plans and researching inhabitants for it.
