Posted	filter colours?
09-08-2007 14:51 by Woz	has anyone ever seen a internal filter that is designed for a specific tank to be camoflaged, for example i have a malawi tank and a tanganyikan tank. With me, i like my tanks to look like the fishes actual habitat, so no castles and skulls in any of my tanks unfortunately, just loads of rocks and a coral sand bed, but theres just one thing that always stands out, and thats the filter, now you can hide it to some degree but wouldnt it make sense for someone to make camoflaged filters which are specific for each type of tank....you could have green camo in a planted tank and most normal community tanks, and in a rocky malawi setup you could have creamy coloured filters......its just something id like and ive never seen before, and if anyone is making them can someone give me their address,...if not i trademark the idea hows everyone else feel about this or am i just being stuuupidd

09-08-2007 16:11 by Lnrak	I think it sounds a good idea really......
09-08-2007 16:21 by mwilde	Stick some plants or rocks in front of it. Job done
09-08-2007 17:03 by Woz	telboy uve hurt my feelings i know but i just dont like seeing a big black filter in the corner of my tank and with rocks its not always easy to cover a filter because it makes maintainance abit hard on the filter
09-08-2007 18:51 by eddy	what about an external filter? No camoflage needed for one of those babies
09-08-2007 19:22 by Woz	haha yeh u have a cupboard door

13-08-2007 08:26 by D.R.	Great idea! Personally - It's why I always bought Eheim, at least they are green (kind of a trade mark) and blend in with the planted aquarium. I dont know what the manufacturers were thinking when they launch their new design of internal filter. It may look like something from the latest Bond movie but its totally out of place in the fish tank
