Brand New 8 gallon bio cube

[Katrina71]

I would love a red Monti cap with white edges. My favorite flower is a Stargazer Lily.

 

[Why-Me]

God works in mysterious ways, just checked local forums and someone is giving away 2 heads of green tip frogspawn and 6-7 heads of duncan in the Frag it forward section...Fingers crossed I was first to respond

@Fin are you talking about when it curls up. You don't like that?

No, when it grows vertically and you see large areas of the underside. Look at the upper right of that tank pic I posted.

@Fin do you think the 60 will be wide enough for one?

Very pretty. The water pump is a nice little scene.

It was actually on our property when we bought it. I kept it thought it was neat.

Seeing how all R2R is here I have a question

I read this somewhere and can't find it now it was on another forum. Some just break off pieces of their cap as opposed to using any type of cutters. I want to know if you could simply use those trimmings to help shape the monti. Like why could you simply glue it on top of the plate to help give it height or the sides for a unique shape.

The plates are a bit fragile and break easy. It would be cool to have a Monti statues.

Also currently looking at monti that is almost big around as 5 gallon bucket bottom, free, frag it forward or gonna get tossed as well as huge birds nest.
Dang I wish I had room for them maybe I'll see what I can do.?!

The tank I saw I believe was a very large one. They literally just layer pieces on the top.

My birds nest just barely grows.

Hippie kid has a Monti. It was a little free frag. His damsel keeps knocking it off. On purpose. Funny how they move stuff if they don't want it there.

For a while. Depends on how fast it grows in your tank. You can always break them up if they start to get too big. I was only sharing my personal views on them.

Green one is in rear

 

[Katrina71]

I've never seen a really large one in person.

Probably 95% of my R2R time I am on my home pc. Usually don't have much time to mess with my phone at work.
