saw some L shapes go on net think the price was 800 to 1200.00 could be wrong. but i would do like you said two tanks into L shape.
you then can move it easyer, put 2 kinds of fish in a L shape.
change it into an extra long tank whenever.
lastly save abit of money for spending on your tanks.

much cheaper my way, which is like you said putting the 2 tanks together to get the effect, everyone that walks in always thinks it's one big l-shaped tank

it means i can have my malawis in the 6' & my hap & peacocks in the 5', so they look together, but are separate

I think that 2 big tanks next to each other might be better, but it's your chioce.

wow love that setup. seriously thinking prob wont be till end of 2007ish.
on doing that but all around a room like a u shape
or get 4 bow fronts and make a circle a girl in one of my local aquatic warehouse shop has done that and the effect i amazing. about 2000.00 the set up.

so many things you can do now.

whens a complete circle coming out 4ft long 4ft wide.

djjaye , id love to see you make a circle out of 4 bow front tanks , i would use 4 corner tanks /trigons myself , just personal preferance , less glass to smash about

That would look good if you had a big enough front room.

You could do that in your garage Wayne.

lisa your tanks are spot on ,im bogwoods dad and weve wanted to copy this idea for a while but we have a double radiator in the way would the temperature be a problem. asked paul stevens advice [unbiased] but when he heard it was a double radiator background he started to drool

21:29 by Red hook
paul didnt you know that you can update backgrounds to suit fashion at the very least a double radiator might give a more expensive look
