Underneath the tank if anyone is interested.
​
A Little Info on the Tank
- Tank: Aqueon Frameless 21
- Filter: Hydor 150
- Heater: Hydor 100W
- Lily Pipes: Stainless Steel ones right here
- CO2 Diffuser: This one right here (It's alright, I only went for this one to match the stainless steel look.)
- Substrate: A mixture of Fluval Stratum and Eco-Complete
- I recommend the Fluval Stratum over the Eco-Complete, has a much better look in my opinion and is a little bit nicer to plant in.
- Light: Finnex Planted+
​
I built the stand the tank is sitting on, and underneath I have a 20lb CO2 canister with a custom built regulator. I can't recommend building your own regulator enough!
