Well, my tank been set up and settled in for a couple months now, thanks to all the great advice and tips I've had on this forum. Here are some pics for you all to see, and here is the stock list.

3x Bloodfin Tetras
2x Von Rio Tetras
3x Swordtails - 2 female, one male
3x Panda Cories
1x CAE who will be moving to a big new tank in 3 months + cycling time.
Malaysian livebearing snails.

This is a good shot showing quite a few different fish, including all 3 bloodfins.

Pandas! :wub:

These snails are cool and look good in the tank.

One of my pair of oddly transparent Von Rios. They have the pink but none of the orange at all.

Male sword chasing one of the two females around. (really hoping for some velvet wags)

The other female sword, I'm pretty sure shes pregnant.

The tank at night with the fun little LED light kit I found at PetSmart going :nod:
 
nice set up, however corys do like to be in groups of 5+ realy (they will be happy with 4 though) so i'de recomend getting 1 or 2 more corys. and thats not just because i LOVE corys.
 
I likes the bloodfin tetras and panda cory pics!

On a side note CAE's are really, really useless fish imo.All mine every did was kill other fish and hide, hated them (i had 3), now only 1...funny story.

The swordtail is definately pregnant by the looks of it, as you said.

Like many people new to fishkeeping I bought the CAE before I really knew enough about them. However, I don't have the heart to "dispose" of her or anything like that. Im planning to get a much larger tank soon anyway, so I'll just make her a home in there and keep her fed heh. I am kind of fond of her and she does have some personality. If I had known then what I do now though, I probably would have held out for some otos.

Yep! The fish store I really like going to is a bit of a drive for me but I plan to go back soon and get two more. :good: :rolleyes:
