    Hello Forum.

    This is my first first post on the forum, but not my first time here.

    I have joined in November 2021 when I decided I want real plant in my tank. i had no clue where to start or what to do. So I came here. I am glad i did. Just reading about the planted tanks was enough to convince me to do it. I have started small(plant wise). Just with "Amazon Swords" and "Eel Grass".

    My tank is 1800mmx50mmx50mm. I have Angels, Bristle nose Plecos, Apple snails and two Khuli Loaches that I only see at night. The Angels laid eggs. Plecos had eggs and I had a snail infestation. I was not aware that the snails would breed like bunnies.

    My next learning curve is to get the Angel fish eggs to hatch and not turn white. Also, get the baby Common plecos to grow to adults.

    Here are some pictures of my tank. Yes I know i need to clean it. Will do it next weekend.

    Cheers.

    Hi. Your tank looks good. Are you looking for more angles?

    Welcome to the forum Wynand! I love those silver angels, they’re real stunners.

    And yep - live plants (where livestock allows) can be a real game changer, welcome to the green side :thumbup:
