Nice list. Those blue rams are one of my favourites. It's a pity about the rasboras, they are such awesome little fish.
Ya waited months to get them and then lost most of them...I moved the remaining 5 to my office tank which had 5 already and some strawberry rasbora's.
Sorry to hear about the Rasboras Mark its always a crappy thing when you lose livestock you were looking for for ages
Thanks @DerikPelser for the Blyxa and other bits and pieces... Have temporarily planted them, but will be replanted more than likely in the coming weeks once my other items have arrived and I decide what to do with everything! I also received a nice section of Glosso today...this has been planted as one big bunch for now, but will be replanted as a ground covering hopefully in time. Couple of pics of the tank with the Blyxa.
Had some left over plants and wood from a new build so spruced up this tank a bit... a Siamese fighter came with the bundle but moved him to this tank rather than the new one...don't want him eating the shrimps. new lounge view...tank thread to follow tomorrow!
Thanks. Its supposed to be running on CO2 but it hasnt been due to my regulator having to be replaced after a few days of use and then once that was sorted out the co2 cylinder trigger pin started leaking and am still waiting to get that sorted out...so all in all its probably had a handful of days worth of co2...
Seems like you got quite a few pieces of blexia from me. Dont even know how much I chucked in for you.
Yup I did...think there was about 10 plants in there...you were very generous! You must have loads not to have even noticed.
lol nah I shipped out both Bettas from my office tank and this tank a while back...the one I originally had in here started to get aggressive with the Rams...I'm not sure if I will keep this one or not...just didnt want him in the new tank and he had to go somewhere.
Did a big water change yesterday on the tank and took the opportunity to do a little rescape at the same time...here are a couple pics of the results. This was the first adjustment...then decided I should clear the front of the tank a bit to try and draw some more focus to the central wood structure...So below is the final result. Some Random Tank pics...
This Hemianthus Micranthemoides bush has gotten massive from the few strands I started with at the start up of the tank. Actually removed a large section of it today which I will drop off at my LFS tomorrow. The RHS of the tank has gotten very jungle like, but I quite like the effect and will leave it like that...with the LHS being the more open space in the tank. One of my Oto's gassing himself! :O
Haha, funny oto @Mark K! I've seen something similar in my own tank with my crazy Bristlenose..... he likes to attach onto the airstone (its a long one and doesn't bubble properly along its full length.) I've been meaning to sort it out, but don't have the heart.... he seems to really enjoy it. :huh:
