Ive added 4 Bronze corys and 1 peppered cory and 3 LDA25's. Ill add a FTS when the water has cleared.

Hey Liam,

Did you get the LDA025 just from a pet shop or a breeder?

Thanks!

Oh right! Hopefully someone does breed them, they are a nice alternative to Otos

I can tell you guys that this tank is more stunning in real life, the photo doesn't give the sense of depth that you see in person. It's a work of art :bow: !drool:

Thanks Sophia.

Got some more fish today, 5 Ember Tetras and 5 Asian Rummy Noses.

I also have a question, would i be able to get a Blue Ram and another 5 of the rummy noses without over stocking the tank?

Can you post some pics of the Asian Rummynoses please? :happy2:

They are rather pale ATM and it might take a week for them to colour up nicely. so when they start to colour up i will take the pics or do you want them now?

All of my Rummy Noses are Females. :an!gry

Any way update with pics from new cam.

I Moved the the wood to the right to encourage the fish to come out more and to shade the crypts a bit.

Wow it looks really good. Nice work :hail:

IMO the stargrass doesn't really suit the layout that well, and it looks quite messy to me. I think maybe some Bolbitis or Java fern in that corner would look nicer. Or if you still want stem plants, either Hygrophila polysperma 'Rosanervig', Rotala rotundifolia, Hemianthus umbrosum or Hemianthus micranthemoides would look awesome :P

Nice pics - now you have to try some fish pics! :wink:

The stargrass will grow rampant if you do not keep it trimmed - actually the best thing for stargrass is to chop the bottom off and throw it away and replant the tops.

Here is a current up date of my tank,

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So i decided to scrap the Iwagumi idea and decided to use the pile of wood that i have been collecting for the last 6 months.

I was looking through Amano's Complete works book and fell in love with this scape

index_05.jpg

AQUA JOURNAL-LAYOUT vol.003

And wanted to use the same kind of combination of Congo fern, moss

and stem plants.So i made a cardboard mock up of my tank and just fiddled round with the bits of wood that i had.
