Yup. Can take up quite an amount of space depending on the design. But I think it is space well invested especially for Tangans keepers. Some fishes also utilize the rocky background and it makes them feel safe.
May i know what is the brand of the cement, mixer and hardener? i assume can get all from hardware shop.

I will have to ask my father, because he got them for me. Should be able to get from hardware shop, if not can try some Defu Lane shops. Those that sell stuff that contractors use.

Ei... I only know it runs on 12V. The tubes never say run at how many watts. Actually this one is used in those modified clear acrylic computer casings one. And the tube is around 1ft. I think they do sell shorter tubes or you can use one tube only also can.
