I posted a few old tank photos including my Oscar/large odd-balls tank and my "Emergency" Oscar tank, but I haven't posted pictures of our standard community tanks...

Well, in all fairness - we only have one properly set up at the moment..anyho, here are a few photos - I haven't used a polarising filter so some of the photos aren't overly well focused on the fish..oh and, ignore all of the grubby finger prints :p :

Our 300l mixed community. We've got everything from a little herd of 6 Denison (Torpedo) Barbs, to African Black Knife Fish, to Glass Cats and your normal host of Tetras and Rasboras. Oh, and a grumpy Butterfly Fish and Fighter (aka "Stinky") who live in the very top of the tank amongst the roots and leaves, and an army (25+) of Corys.

A couple more (blurry) shots of the tank:

"Big Stinky Fish", my pride and joy. He's around 3 inches long in the body at the moment.

Just picked this fella up this afternoon, so he's in a boring quarantine tank for abit until I know if his missing scale is going to get any worse.

The "Oh, I'll just bung it in there" tank. This isn't really an "official" setup. It's just where things get dumped while they're in transition. Typically.. my Ghost Knife Fish (aka "Dogface") decided not to show himself. He's my baby. Apart from him, there is a fat Fighter, a little Goby, lots of Japonic Shrimps, a Gold Ancistrus and a mating pair of Bristlenose.

Said fat Fighter..he's just eaten.

All of the tanks are a bit neglected at the moment, as both myself and my Husband have been away alot. We're getting back on track though and plan to neaten things up in the coming days.

love the way the valis has taken .

Indeed. All of the plants seem to have overun the tank.

The fish all love it - especially the more timid ones.

And, I had an inkling when I was taking the photos yesterday - but didn't follow it up until this morning:

I have TWO male Fighters in that tank. One living at either end. I had no idea :lol:

I also found a Bumblebee Catfish in there this morning as well...don't know when he turned up. I think I will remove him - he's around 4" and I can imagine Neons and other smaller fish ending up in his gob.
