Milamber's Community Tank

Hey guys,

My tank is still under construction. I'm getting the new lights sometime next week. (2 x T5 10 000K) and with the new lights also more plants.

I currently have in the tank:
1 x All Silver Angel (My baby)
3 x See through Guppies
2 x Swordtails
1 x Swordtail/Platy Hybrid
3 x Molly

I am planning on getting 3x Panda Cory's and 3x Kuhli Louches as soon as i can and also 3 more Angels. Maybe i'll get some tetra's as well for some shoaling effects as soon as the plant system is up and running.

Ill post pics here as the progress goes. I can't wait for my lights!

Anyway, tell me what you think of the progress?

 

For those who can remember how the tank looked a few weeks ago, (there was a post under livestock as i wanted to get rid of some cichlids), do you think it looks better

 

Tank is looking good; the angel is a platinum angel.

 

very nice

 

looks great

 

Looking great Milamber:bigsmile: Will you be putting a background to hide the bricks? or will you use plants for that. Will love pics as you progress

 

I like the bricks

 

I liked the bricks at first, but i got vallis planted now, i want a wall of vallis to be the background. What do you guys think?

 

Vallis will look great with your Angel

 

Im doing a Vallis wall, I love how its looking Plus I like the bricks and the vallis will hide iy but still show some of it.

 

Okay, here are some more pics! got my Eheim filter busy aging in the tank and got my 2 sunglo T5 10000k lights in.

(Tank is currently filtered by a hang on back on one side and a corner filter on the other :worried: so the Eheim filter will replace them. I understand it's a good make?)

Adopted some new children

2x Panda Cory's (Sooooo cute!)
1x Some or another pleco thingy that stays small (see pic)
2x male guppies (one snakeskin and one multi-color) but they are camera shy.

The cleanup crew is now in place in the tank. Yay. Just waiting for the new filter to mature then the tank is basically ready to grow the vallis wall and get some more angels. Then the work on my nano starts.

Tank is starting to take shape.

What do you guys think?

 

Here are some more pics. Haha I'm trigger happy.

 

I got some more fishies today.
1x Stark black Angel
1x Koi angel
2x Guppies (really pretty ones)

The vallis is growing nicely. I'll post some more pix soon! (For those who care.)

xox

 

He,he - how the new angels dong with Mr.White...? Settling in nicely?

 

Looking good. The older it gets, the better it will look! My plants are starting to fill the tank now (no fancy CO2 etc - low tech). Corys are probably the most amusing fish I have...get 2 or 3 more and you'll have some real entertainment!

 

Milamber, tank really looking good. Hope to see more pics soon.

 

The black Angel died somewhere in the night so sad. But the rest of the seem to be doing well.
Thanks for the feedback guys. Waiting for the plants to grow a bit more then I'll post some more pics. I want to get 3 or so more Panda's I love those little fish.

 

Dang dude - sorries.... thats strange!

 

Hi @Milamber,

Your tank looks very nice.

Please tell me the name of the two plants you got in the middle of your tank ? (They got the small & round leaves.)

 

I think @azurekoi could answer that for you. I have no idea what they are. They grow easily though.
