I need to see as many loach tank setups as possible if someone could direct me.
I want to redecorate now that Im doing a purpose-driven tank. Already have the fine substrate. Im going to add a bunch of slate caves but I need ideas about how to do that
Anyone got a direction they can point me in?

Good pics there thanks...
Someone put a tube into their sand like a premade burrow and there was a quite happy loach poking out of it. I think I might try to incorporate that somehow...
OH and got any extra slate? LIke forty ish pounds?

Easy to camouflage............
If you have gravel

... and silicone.
I have no slate unfortunately.

Im off to Betz then, where they act better than you because they know their geology.
I'll stump them one day though... They're pretty friggin good...
Its fun you should go check em out. "Gneiss- metamorphic or igneous! Five seconds!!"
Apparently 'Mr Sticky's underwater glue' is better than silicone fer that kinda stuff...
I'm not going to do it though. I know myself, its too many steps
Ive got a bad ass aquarium in my head. Its gonna be a nice one...
Ive got the gravel in the tank and everyone's back in there.
Don't try to catch a large pleco with your hand if you cant see it... I've been stabbed.
