Eventually negotiated to upgrade and old 36" tank I have to a 48". I have a little room upstairs where I keep my PC and recently an old 36" tank I "borrowed from a friend. Its massively scratched and although it does the job I fancied something better. Normally for me bigger aquarium + bigger fish. For this one I'm planning on a heavily planted tank and stocking it with a lot of really small fish. This is likely to take a while for reasons of cost and fish availability. I'm open to suggestions for very small fish suited to moderately soft water.
My existing tank holds a few refugees from other tanks. 4 Panda Cories, 4 Killis, 2 harlequins, 1 Celestial pearl Danio and 2 BNs. Plants are mostly Java fern, a stem plant which did spectacularly well for a year then just melted and a few bits and pieces. I'll be switching them all to the new tank. Pics in this post are of the demolition part.
