Instructions
Place the PVC tubing where you want it. Placing the return tubing in the back corners of the aquarium will make it easier to hide the return pipes.
Select an assortment of tall aquarium plants and place them in the corners of the tank. Use real plants, especially large and fast growing species such as sword plants, or use plastic plants, which can be arranged any way you want them.
Place an assortment of aquarium rocks along the PVC tubing to hide it and provide a natural look for the tank. Place several rocks next to one another to create a natural cave for the shier fish to hide.
Attach a piece of natural driftwood to a slate bottom. Sink the slate bottom in the gravel and place the driftwood against the PVC tubing.
