Hey everyone,
First i'll start with a little about myself, when i was younger i was fascinated by fish, so i bought myself a tank, and had myself some african cichlids. Which was fun, it looked nice but i never took it seriously. A few weeks ago i decided to research about native fish and fell in love with rainbowfish. The more i researched *and creeped this forum* I fell in love with the overall design, the balance between, art/hobby/life. So i decided to throw together a 4ft tank which consist's of
2 Goyder river rainbowfish
3 streets creek rainbowfish
3 oyster creek rainbowfish
2 l002 pleco's
1 tandanus catfish
1 salmontail catfish
1 freshwater muscle
And in the hope they would hide well and breed 10 cherry shrimp *which 8 are still alive*
The plants inside the tank are:
Anubuias nana
Anubuias afzelli
blyxa japonica
Milfoil
Vallisneria nana
Java fern
Dwarf pongol *only recently found out isnt even aquatic supposivly*
Riccia
Fontanalis
Hairgrass
Parts and accessories:
1300l p/h filter *soon to be upgraded to cannister*
150w heater
DIY c02 *with enough interest i will create a DIY Guide*
DIY drop checker *same as above*
Laterite and iron gravel
Excel
1 t8 40w *in a few days to be replaced by 3 x t5 HO 54w
some driftwood and rocks.
Tank specs:
ph 6.6
KH 5.5
c02 30ppm
temp 26 degrees
Im not sure if this picture upload will work, but i hope someone out there will appreciate my effort and time on my first scape.
