Saes Love A Good Mag-float.

Yeah, he sits up there all the time, sometimes some of his little minions sit with him till he tail bashes them off.

Well Anyway, i re-scaped my 72-gallon.

It was a forced re-scape because of these guys who get along nice now that I added three females. but they made the tank cloudy, oh well, no spike.

I took my huge alaskian rock and partially covered it in riccia to give it a bit of a test run. That rock is now the keeper of the gates to the cories resting place. I notices the cories liked either the wristeria or the rock so i moved the wisteria behind the rock.

Group shots!

72 Gallons

Not really sure when to comes to plants.

Umm.. i think it is these though.

Dwarf Chain sword
some kind of dwarf sag
water Wisteria
Riccia
Duckweed
Hornwort
amazon sword
Ocelot sword
giant hygro
some kind of red/pink hygro

As for Fish i know those a lot better.

4 Pearl Gouramis (1M, 3F)
6 SAEs
25-30 Black Neon Tetras (lots of males (tiny) dozen or so females (big beauties) )
10-15 Schwartz Cories. (they stay small-ish, don't worry)

I actually have since ( a few minutes after these photos) removed the algea on the back wall and moved the other filter intake to the other side of the tank with the other intake and reactor.

Does the SAE stop you from using that mag-float? But other than that, i love the tank .

nah... I jsut use it. alot of times he follows it around. anyway. the stuff on the back has to be taken off with a razor blade. I did it last night after these pictures.

Nerite snails...I now swear by their amazing algae eating skills! I have not had to scrape my glass or clean my rocks for 2 months because of them! Previously my tank glass ended up like yours within a week of cleaning.
