Stay tuned for the April 2017 Tank of the Month Contest!
 
Congratulations! Your red-eyes are gorgeous c:
 
Congrats..very natural looking tank...really like the wood and variety of plants..what type of filter (capacity) and media in it..
Seems like a lot of fish but most are small for the time being ;)
 
The filter is a Juwel bio flow 3 - 600lph, not sure of the capacity - about 3/4 litres id imagine. I use a combination of ceramic and sponge media with a polyester floss that I change weekly.

Thanks
 
Congrats....very worthy.
