Thanks to DevUk + Ulster Exile for all the Plants.

thanks it sure has been alot of work. i just love eating all my meals in front of this and watching all the fish interact with the environment.

i get to watch them be as natural as possible, and watch the predatory nature of the hunters and prey.

i added 5 pairs of the meek cichlids today as i want to see how the develop and grow. as from reading up on them they are pretty rare in the trade and very nice to keep.

and 25 minnows for the top of the tank.

DevUk's Mahoooooosive Goldy has paired up with my Snow Ryukin and spend all day swimming around together.


The Most enjoyable part is watching natural spawning on all the different surfaces.
From the Apple snails on the undersides of the Hyacinth to the Cories spawning in the current.
to watching the Sunset Gouramis wrapping under the lilly pads.

Yea!..Nice.... Now tidy up the shelve below the tank...

yeah its a mess,

just got rid of the tank that came with the thisone, i was using it to chuck all thejunk in. now i have all that space fo more tanks.
Sold the 4*2*2 to my PO Manager - she wanted it for her yellow belly turtles.

Plus i need to lift up the chipboard and find scorpius' hiding spot.(my Imperial Scorpion) Shelives underneath the boarding after she escaped her tank. and i hear her moving around under there in the mornings.

she's ok her stinger has been covered with one of those industrial grade ear plugs (that CNC machinists Use). Sh is very tame and can be handled gently.

i was eating brekkie this morning and the fish were loving the crushed rice crispies i was chucking in for them. even the butterflies were taking them.
will take some more pix and closeups tonight, when there is more shade.
 
Looks good, i can imagine it'd be 10,000x more impressive in person.
