My New Tank :d

[Malawi MaD]

Picked this up today to replace my 60L tank, taken me so long to set up but its just done roughly for now will look good (hopefully) when i get it how i want it Need a co2 system to get decent plant growth going etc.. Need to learn how to scape planted tanks well too

 

[Gidge]

Awesome! How many litres? The wood looks great. Stocking??

 

[Malawi MaD]

240L this is going to be my first main planted tank so i need to learn a bit and learn how to make them look good Not sure what you reckon??

 

[Gidge]

I think you know what I'm going to say. Firemouths!! haha
Nah I dunno hey! You wanting to keep tropicals or cichlids?
Angels maybe?
So many options!

 

[Malawi MaD]

Yup think you got a good plan there I would like firemouths as i was saying yesterday
Trops, still got my 2 cichlid tank's so want something a little different. Whats the best way to get plants growing well??

 

[Gidge]

Ohhh I'm new to planted tanks as well. Like you said, C02 system. Im just learning about ferts at the moment. So I'll pass on any info

You could go discus? I'm pretty sure that tank would be good size for a small group. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Still no nothing about the Co2 route or anything either so need to have a read i think Yeah discus would be awesome but i don't think the tank is big enough(not sure though).

I am in complete awe of that wood. Did it come with the tank or did you have to buy it? I dread to think how much that bit of wood is worth!

 

[seabear]

That looks like a big piece of wood

Nice wood

Discus and maybe some Rummynoses?

It is a big piece, yeah i bought it yesterday, the tank has cleared up a little today but still not happy with how it looks. Not natural enough (yet)

Nice wood

Discus and maybe some Rummynoses?

How many Discus you thinking ??

 

[minnnt]

don't know, maybe 6 juveniles? They need a decent sized group.

i think that that would be a great discus tank. im thinking along the lines of 6 discus 20 rummy nose tetras and some cory's i am so jealous of your driftwood.
How many Discus you thinking ??
