    I will...have commenced the mudskipper tank build, so I'll probably post about that the weekend. :)

    About a week ago I moved the 3 black neon tetras into the 1,5m (they’re doing super well), and bought 7 more (in quarantine). Lost 1 early on but the other 6 are doing well.

    @A new day
    The Neons will look quite effective against the green of the plants

    I really like them and the ones already in the 1,5m pop in the darker environment. Their feeding behaviour is also fun to watch. Darting up to the surface and back, very fast and precise. Apart from that they’re very chilled.
    These new ones are putting on size fast and getting used to me now.

    Have had this group of harlequin rasboras in for about 2 weeks- they’re a lively bunch and picking up size. Destined for the 65L eventually.

    The stems are overdue a trim, will hopefully get around to that this weekend (and pull some mosses).

    I also have 3 (all I could find for now) juvenile Pygmy corys in another Q tub. They’re going into the 44L I think.

    Rasboras stand out nicely against the green
