I am just wanting to show my new 40 gal fowler tank. The tanks main inhabitant will be a small snowflake eel until I can find a dwarf golden eel or a golden tail moray. Here are some pics.

I am hoping to skip most of my cycle. I used 20gals from my 65 gal. I used some sand from my 65gal to seed the new sand. Tell me what you guys think. good and bad comments welcome.

Great set up. I like how you have the pvc under the sand for the eel, very creative.

What fish do u plan on? The tank is going to house a small snowflake until I can get golden dwarf moray or a golden tail moray. I am also wanting to add a full grown golden head goby to the tank to keep the sand bed clean. I am not sure If I want to add any other fish then that. But if any one has any suggestions then let me know.
