well i finally broke down and got some more flat marbles and pink gravel form the dollar tree they also had silicone glue there too! so i an going to put the pink gravel in the girlies tank ( i got 4 jars of it) and i am going to decorate pots with the marbles and a tube for Spartacus. it is going to look awesome right now they are soaking in aged water then i am going to clean the marbles really well then rinse the gravel! ill post pictures when i am done probably in 2 days.
do you think it is a good idea? BTW the gravel was a great deal so go check it out at the closest dollar tree

ok well i am done!! they turned out well. i made a tube with it cowed in flat marbles. then i make a pot for the girls and i put flat marbles around the rim and put the pink gravel stone things on the rest and then at the bottom i put more clear stones. in the girls tank i am going to put the pink gravel/stones things on the bottom of the tank. and i also just added clear flat marbles on two pot rims. it looks very simple and the fishes like to lay on them lol

I don't think that the fish are gonna care if the sparklies are straight or not....

Looks like you did a fine job. :woo:

Trust me, mine are nowhere near perfect :P some blobs of sealant here and there...and then the darn marble thingers fell off into the pot so there's some streaks of sealant in the pots. :P

Look good :) I love pink...heh heh heh.
You may notice them peeking at their reflections in the stones....Fabio did a lot at first. He still might, but when I don't see him :drunk: I always knew he thought he was a supermodel

Taco - STOP STOP STOP!!!!
If you just used plain old silicone adhesive you're going to have some major problems.

Did you use actual aquarium sealant? or silicone adhesive? Cuz if it isn't aquarium sealant - TAKE THEM OUT!!!

bettamomma what will it do?
aquarium silent is 100% silacone too. i looked on the back of the silacone glue and it said safe for fish and non toxic

Pretty :) I think some of the tanks are rather boring, I'll see what I can do later :)
