29 Gallon Tank

I like this tank, I love tiger barbs too, they are awesome fish to watch, very active.

Quick pic - moved the tank and built the stand. Just got cloth to cover it, has a nice easy access flap! Also got a new Albino Bristlenose Pleco - will post a picture of him later

Its ok, it was a while ago. this guy will have plenty to munch on. I was advised against having two in this tank.

Nice tank. 

 I love the substrate, I might go for that in my 65 gallon tank, it looks fantastic! I have two ABNP, they're so much fun to watch! Sad that one of yours died though.

Hey yall - quick couple of updates on this tank!
 
I planted it with some clippings from my 20 gallon that has gone WILD with plants. I tried introducing new tiger barbs but they were killed off. Most recently, I have added in one GBR and am looking to get another GBR to keep in there as it's mate. Here's some pics of the tiger barbs!

And of course, my little BNP:

I am super jealous of your tank! It was exactly how I envisioned mine to be, but mine still turned out ok. I'll be using yours as a model next time I redo my tank  

 (which I often do, I just like keeping myself busy.) Not sure with your current stocking, but I have a few tiger barbs with a convict cichlid, and I really like the look. He has tiger-like stripes too so he kinda looks like a big alpha-tiger. They are super mean though, and it will chase your tigers around....a lot. But tiger barbs are tough and quick enough so they'll be ok. Just a suggestion, cause I noticed you did originally want a convict! They are great fish they have lots of personality.
