    White Sand ► amzn.to/2FEqiRo
    Pumps ► amzn.to/2IeIPZJ
    Water polisher ► amzn.to/2KwN4hy
    Plants/Monte carlo ► bit.ly/2BQhxpR

    CO2 bubble counter ► amzn.to/2IePFhR
    CO2 setup ► amzn.to/2rhHWVK
    Heater ► amzn.to/2JPRS0s
    LED light ► amzn.to/2HOkTJ7
    Sand Waterfall Construction:
    Great video explaining how it works: bit.ly/2HOSgQp
    1/2 in. pvc
    1/16 in. acrylic inserted to create velocity
    Pumps used to run "sandfalls"
    Sand: small grain, not pool filter sand
    99.9% of sand must fall back into trap or else the waterfall will eventually stop.

    OMG this is your best build yet!! Can you please do a 20G long aquascape for an axolotl? My guy will be needing new digs as he gets bigger but axolotls have different requirements being cold water and low light. They also tend to eat their substrate so need sand, bare bottom, etc (nothing they can fit in their mouths). Since they also spend most of their time on the bottom, I would imagine a sloped substrate would also be an issue but it looks so much better!

    My recommendation for fish for this tank would be butterfly catfish. I think they would really give it a good effect of birds flying around a waterfall...and obviously it'll need some sort of shrimp lol. If you can get some varr. green or green jade ones I think they would make a sweet lizard/reptile feeling too

    I just made and gave up on mine. I carved a solid piece of featherlite stone. had to anchor it down with legs and a catch basin on slate (it was a floater) hooked it all up and it worked. Built tank (it's a dirted setup). Wasn't happy with my basin set up and it was super tall for substrate so I pulled it all out rebuilt tested flow in tub with no sand and water was flowing out through the collection t part but if I blocked it as sand might it flowed. Maybe this was indication I did not restrict flow enough.
    Rebuilt tank hooked it up. No dice. Cut my hand up trying to find problem. There was no flow through my T inlet. Maybe my plastic modifications of it wasn't deep enough it was more than half way but not as deep as yours and bogged with silicone. Tried to fiddle with it but I really can't make adjustments with out ripping it all apart again. Was contemplating using the air bubbler but would need to cut pipes underneath but would need to rip it all apart to do it..... So frustrated but after an entire week of working it every day and a looming fish auction date I'm just going to live with no falls. So frustrating. Still contemplating pulling it apart because I seriously put 20+ hours into building and it would be so cool...... #frustration

    Some ideas: Paradise Fish, an Angel of some kind (preferably with minimal white), Pea Puffers, Australe Killifish, Honey Gourami, maybe some Apistogrammas, not sure how they'd fare w/ the sand falls, and I'm pretty sure these all could do well with some Pork Chop Rasboras- just some complementary contrast.
