United States, Pennsylvania, Northumberland
I modeled this habitat of the beautiful Susquehanna river that spans 492 miles from New York emptying into the Chesapeake Bay. This aquarium has a great deal of emotional connection to me as well. I use to be a fishing guide on the river and do a lot of work with veterans with fishing trips to help get them out into nature to relieve personal day to day issues. I ended having a tragic accident and losing part of my leg so it became to cumbersome to stand in the boat all day.
This is when aquascaping and biotope aquaria and now this Susquehanna river tank and the time and dedication to the rock, wood I’ve collected and stock I’ve selected have really just all came into place really well and brought that amazing feeling back to me in the home. I hope you guys can get a sense of that in the little bit of images I share with you. This tank is 143 gallon Waterbox aquariums clearpro I custom drilled and plumbed for a sump conversion with a 40 gallon sump with 2 Oase Optimax 1150 pumps.
