this is the most recent pic i have taken, things have slightly changed due to having to give my tank a good clean up though :p
at the moment i am the proud owner of 5 harlequin espei, a red wagtail platy and a very handsome looking arulius barb :)
 
Looks GREAT!!!! Wish I could come up with something like that! I'm no good at decorating tanks...
 
lanning setting my new 63l tank next week, i have big plans on decorating it as think a lot of tank pictures on here look very bare. but not saying mines going to work out lol
 
aw thanks shi24137 :D !!

i am planning on eventually turning this into a fully planted tank, when i have the money to invest in plants and plant care, so i can successfully keep my plants without them dying off this time round :)
 
Yea, I just bought a 8" anubias to put in my tank, I have a melon sword and a green ozelot, I had a dwarf baby tears but that pretty much disintegrated, it was only $5 so not really a loss, I'm going to get another one soon...also looking for some sand to put in my tank, lowes had some sand but it was like a paving base kind of sand, so I figured it would be best to get some from my LFS even though they want too much for it...hoping to find black sand or something
 
ooh sounds nice :)! i got through a lot of plants until i actually looked up which ones would be suited to my water conditions and which ones are more easy to keep, now i feel it is going a lot better even though the plants i bought were also cheap so its not really that much of a loss but i like how i've began to learn about them :) i payed something like 15 or 16 pounds for 8Kg of river sand that was including postage and packaging and stuff though, still quite expensive :/
 
Here is a picture of the plant I just bought, although I don't think it is 8"

Don't mind the cloudy water, I am having a problem with it right now...hoping it sorts itself out...
 
awesome :) im guessing it'll grow bigger :), i have an anubias plant in my tank, anubius barterri var. nana to be precise :p lol its doing really well although it takes a while to grow, nice looking plant though :)
 
Yea, my algae eater loves sitting on the leaves, he has been there ALL day today! I'll see if I can get a picture of him, it's really cute!
 
aw thats nice :) id love to see a pic, what kind of algae eater do you have :) ? i used to have a little young bristlenose and he was lovely but unfortunately he didn't survive!
