My new tank should hopefully be arriving tomorrow
!!!! Cannot wait.
The tank is a hailea FA400B. Total capacity: 71Litres/20 US Gallons
Made of glass with 90° curved edge, the new-typed, high-clarity
aquarium has excellent vision.
All-in-one waterproof lighting system, safe & reliable.
Turnover lid with built-in lighting and heat dissipation systems.
Waterproof feeding door on lid, convenient to feed fish or add
water treating compound.
Quick to install and convenient to maintain.
Sounds awesome aay
I will be putting some already colonized filter media in it from my community to hopefully speed up the cycle.
I was going to set it up with black sand or gravel, but i cant get to a LFS for a bit so ill just bung in some argos playsand i have laying around.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------Stocking---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the title suggests im swaying towards cichlids for this one. Im thinking of some Apistogramma cacatuoides (AKA Cockatoo Cichlids, Fire red version). Probably a pair, alongside a large shoal of cardinal or rummynose tetras (probably around 8-10) and maybe 5-6 corydoras.
(Apisto Cacatuoides)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------Plantation---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Im not looking to do anything special plant wise, that may come later. For now i will pick some standard LFS plants to give the tank some good looks and keep the fish happy.
