I love it.

Your tank as a family feel to it -- I enjoyed looking at all the pictures. I loved all your fish, but my favorite would have to be that wee little guppy daring to eat with that huge pleco -- both fish are gorgeous, too!

Love,
Dakota

Very nice tank and beautiful pics - the new lighting looks great!

Sounds like you've been over-run by duckweed (floating plant) I love those things... It's impossible to kill - just what I need considering how useless I am with plants.

Swet! How are those moss balls dude? i was gonna buy one last week, but i was unsure as to how they will go? I thought it might be a waste of money if it dies? How is yours?

The moss balls are fine, they are basically an algae so it should help to stop other algae growth (I think ).

Thanks for the Guppy compliments. I have another couple in there who have like peacock markings (A really deep blue spot around the pectoral fin area with lighter blue and orangey colours trailing to the tail. The colours then split and run along the top and bottom edge of the caudal fin. I have tried on numerous occasions to get photos but to no avail.

Duckweed is the thing, though it has died down just now in the big tank and my 7.5 gal betta tank, but was rampant in the Dwarf Puffer tank. I've thrown in some water lettuce into every tank to try and take up some of it's room (and a water hyacinth in the bottom sump tank to give the poor female guppies something to look at).
