My 5X2X2 Amazion Themed Tank

[blue acara]

Heres my 125 imperial gallon tank that I've had running for a few years now. This tank is really all about the fish. It is fairly heavily stocked and heavily filtered with large frequent water changes. Its a really interesting tank to watch when I have time, plenty going on in there! Possibly looks a bit small and overstocked in the pics but is quite different in person. The discus are huge at well over 7 inch and the angels are fully grown and pretty large also.

Hope you liked

Lovely set-up. The angels are particularly well coloured.

It's what I was looking at doing with my 320 - just focus on the fish and some nice wood - but ended up doing something different.

One of my favorite tanks as well Have to admit I liked it when I was just the Angels and the Auticeps but the Discus and Geos look great in there Whats the full stock list?

Really really nice

Thanks for the comment. Yup them angels are pretty special. They are wild caught peruvian scalare had them since they were really small and I got them for a bargain price too. I will get some close up to show their true colours later.

thanks for the kind comment Wills. Lets see if I can remember the sticklist...

6 peruvian scalare
3 domestic discus
6 satanoperca acuticeps
8 red head tapajos geophagus- still breeding like rabbits and I have fry available
12 corydoras sterbai- these are spawning but eggs always get eaten quickly after being laid by the Sterbai themselvs...
15 ish rummy nose tetra- used to have 50 but over the years their numbers have gone down.
1 green phantom pleco
3-4 otos
1 common hatchetfish- again used to have 12 but this is the only survivor <3. Most died through jumping out of the tank and drying up.
3 corydoras adolfoi and 2 bronze corys.

plenty of fish^

a pair of the red head geophagus spawned earlier. They want their picture taken obviously

female fanning eggs today

male fish from another pair which will soon spawn...

The redhead geophagus tapajos are now one of my all time favourite species of fish to keep without a doubt. Beautiful looking, lots of personality, hardy, easy to breed and feed and are a nice size maxing out at about 6-7 inches.

It can be very difficult to make a Biotope look good, in a natural sense and you have nailed it mate! I for one would love to see this tank in the flesh (glass and water). Brilliant.
