Fish Fanatic
'lo there. I finally got my camera recharged last night, and took pix of all my tanks:
First up: La Casa Swirly - 75 gal - Artificial Plants - 1 Eastern Painted Turtle (unfortunately named Swirly), Feeder Guppies (This will change next spring.)
Homemade wet dry sump filter.
Angkor Wat - 55 gal - Planted - 12 Harlequins, 8 Cherry Barbs, 5 Striped Loaches, 5 Kuhli Loaches, 2 Bristlenosed Plecos (Migrant Labor), and a Pearl Gourami.
This is my livingroom tank. I let the algae have its slimy way with the back and sides, much to the benefit of my plecos.
The Amazon - 20 gal - Planted - 6 Glow Lights, 5 Black Neons, 4 Sterba's Corys, 1 Leopard Cory, 1 Bristlenosed Pleco, 1 Clown Pleco
My first planted tank.
Bottom Feeders - 20 gal - Planted - 12 Pygmy Corys, 6 Otos, 1 Bulldog Pleco. (Once this settles down, I am going to fill it out with some neons.)
My newest tank. Former turtle house. Eventually, all but the bulldog pleco will go to a 40 gallon flat back hex in Mrs. Hat's Classroom, and I'll come up with something else to do with this. Dwarf Honey Gouramis, maybe.
My Little Girl's tank - 10 gal - fake everything but fish - Fancy Guppys - 4 large, too many small (none in the picture)
She wanted Pink gravel. She's 6. (Her 4 year old sister wants me to do a 5 gallon planted tank for her. Maybe some day.)
And finally, my baby guppy grow tank - 10 gal, fake plant - lots of guppy fry.
Shot from the narrow end.
Two more tanks to set up this year, and maybe one more next year.
