but i still prefer those pressurized tank,is expensive around 180-250 depands how big but refill damn cheap. true anot?

just got my tank 2 days ago for crs..

this is the basic look like, more to go

no need to change plants , unless u wanna rescape.  but again. the plant will 'not die' only if ur tank suitable for them
plants can be few dollor to over RM100.. depance what u want.
I canot really remember the price.. it come with 3liter n 9 liter.. soil is chepaer, power is mor expensive.. 9L is RM100+
can share ur full spec? what soil u using? or a photo of u tank?

dont worry .. it wont hit anything if u put it slowly. i done it 2 times edi .. both 4ft.. other stuff put at the boot. price ? second around 40-60.. new around 120
haha thats why laa .. other part use cheap2 equipment.. hv to spend on proper soil. how to scape ? haha i also pening .. i wanted to do a simple wide v shape iwawoody. most of the area will be covered with either glosso or HC. left and right side gonna have some WD... i dont care much about the scape .. as long the CRS are happy happy ... might put 100-200 rummy nose tetra and neon tetra slowly .. haha . where got money to buy it all at one time. 

8ft tank at least 10mm . mine will be custom made 12mm. wanna find used one very hard ..
