Looks very nice.
Wow, that's a lot of fish. Looks to be overstocked. What size tank?
 
Hi chemflex :)

I really like your tank. It's so natural looking. :thumbs:
 
Nice tank, but i agree with the others about the amount of fish, way to much in my opinion.

Yeah it does, oh wait, that's his 180 liter.
Even so 180L converts to approx. 40 gl. Don't get me wrong it is a beautiful tank with tons of movement but if you have all the fish listed in your sig in that tank they are probably really crowded. If you base it on the much disputed adult inch per gallon ratio you have enough fish for several tanks that size. Not trying to be harsh it's your tank and all just giving an opinion. :)
 
Yes very nice tank! But like others have said it is very overstocked! If that tank is on stock filteration (Juwel?) I would guess the bio load will get very overloaded and effect water quality, how longs the tank been stocked that high? Again though, very nice tank! :hyper:
 
The main problem is that several of those fish are going to get even bigger. They may have to be moved out soon.
 
I'm a she, name's Lindsey!!!

I check the water parameters regularly, everything is always spot-on!
I change the filter media as per manufacturers instructions.
I also test the nitrate levels regularly and carry out 25% water changes every fortnight, although according to my test results the nitrate levels are still extremely low then.

The tanks been like that for over a year and I very, very, very rarely get any disease or illness. Off the top of my head I can only think of one outbreak of ich and that was probably about 6-8 months ago. My fish are all very happy and active!!!

Thanks for your comments about my tank though - I was going for the natural look.
 
i think its an amazingly active tank, and very pretty as well


as long as ur tanks ok, all ur readings are fine i cant see any problems there :)


looks cool, great work :thumbs: :kewlpics:
