My first ever black water tank!

[Essjay]

The fish in Byron's profile picture are green or false neon tetras, Parachierodon simulans, not normal neons They have more blue and less red than normal neons. I has some a few years ago, and the blue looks a bit green when seen at a certain angle.

Hi guys, I just wanna show off my first ever black water and low budget.
It took me 5 hours to finished all of this, I hope you enjoy.

stockings: 20 neon tetras, 6 lemon tetras and 5 cherry barbs.
the only thing I really proud of is low budget, all fish in this tank only cost 0.6$ (20 Thai Baht) in my LFS.

I just added 5 Indian almond leaves and now I can’t see my fishes, I might have to do a water change.

Can I use this Dried pinecone for a decorations?

No pine is not good for tanks
