How's This Tank Looking?

[fry_forever!]

Hey guys! I know there is no sand, and unnatural colored gravel, but it's all live planted, has some real driftwood, and a couple real rock caves. Yay!









Thanks!

-f_f!

Which dwarfs are you going for?

Which dwarfs are you going for?

Umm, I really like the dwarf cockatoo cichlids, but if I can't get those, I would really like a couple of kribs, even if it will be a little tight in my 17 gallon. lol

 

[Curiosity101]

Then yes it looks great for them. I certainly would stick to the apistos though if I were you.

 

[fry_forever!]

Aren't kribs apistos?

I'm still trying to figure this all out. lol

And thank you very much! I appreciate that! I tried to make it more to the fish's preference than mine! lol

 

[Curiosity101]

Nope.

Apistogramma is a genus (comprising of around 100 species apparently)
Cacatuoides is a species.

Your average Kribensis are
Pelvicachromis (Genus)
Pulcher (species)

You often find that the more 'comfortable' you make it for the fish, the more you benefit. The happier and safer fish feel, often they show better colours and come out more.

Urkkkkk. The filter in the middle is just.... bugging me. >.<; Maybe move it off to the corner or something? Well, other than that; it looks very nice! ^^;

but it looks pretty good

just that the green leafy plant on right... i dont really like it... but its your tank, just my opinion

 

[fry_forever!]

Haha! Thanks for all the comments! Yeah, the filter.... Well, I'm kind of used to it, so I don't even notice it now. The green leafy plant is java fern... it just kind of grew like crazy, and I left it like that. lol
