bit bored this afternoon so just thought id put some pics up, only hav my fone for now,so theyre not even very good,sorry.

tank 1
this is Bo`s tank, its bare at the moment as he came to me with HTH so need to be able to keep it spotless for him,and its much easier this way, he has 2 plecs and a weather loach in there with him, the weather leach needs to go but im scared of him,so need someone to catch him

tank 2
this is my community tank, was almost wiped out recently due to me buying a molly that developed columaris a few hours after getting it into the tank :( had major issues with algae and yesterday had a clean up in there,re arraneged the plants etc,and im pleased, tho its still not as clear asi would like it to be .just noticed the floating plants :lol:.. clown loaches

tank 3
wanted to stay simple with this one,though saying that i moved a few plants in there yesterday from tank 2,cycled this tank by swapping media from Bo`s tank,and then went to the shop where i bought Bo and managed to get back the barbs that i had to take in to be able to put him in his tank.. though i think there maybe 2 less than i took to him, but never mind, they are all very happy in there,wanted barbs as when i took them i left one of them behind, hes now in with them and its like theyve never been away.

tank 4
this tank had amano shrimp-4 of and 20+ cherry shrimp, 2 apple snails ( moved the other 2 to tank 2 to clean up)
i do daily water changes on this tank, its dosent take 2 mins and it makes me feel better,and im sure it beneifits the shrimp too
the plants ( java fern) that have been put in terrocotta pots and dropped in there are simply there till i get some more wood to tie them onto.
your comments are more than welcome, advice on placement of the plants in tank 2 would be,as im stuck with that

looking good shelagh :good: good to see the tank collection almost back at full strength lol
 
Some nice tanks you got there :D Bo is massive, lol :)

The community one, is that a roma 200? or 125? Glad to see that it wasn't wiped out.
 
lol Mark! i wont be long getting there :lol:

thanks logik, he is massive ( about 11inches), unfortunately hes obviously been kept in poor conditons as his fins are very stumped and he has HTH which i suspect he picked up being at the shop for 4 weeks.. but hes being treated like a king here,spoilt rotten :lol: soon have him feeling better :)
the tank is the roma 200
 
Wow, 11inches. Shame about the poor conditions he was in, sad to hear about that.
Bet he is in heaven now!

Sorry for the dumb tank question, asking which one it is when it is clearly written in your signature :p :)
 
Bo is a real cutey :wub: and I think your tanks look great! One thing for tank2... maybe some amazon sword behind the vallis in the back left corner?
 
thanks everyone and yes i will get amazon sword for that area :) great idea


amunet.. have you seen them move? :lol: when i open the tank to feed BO i have to keep my eye on him just incase he wriggles out eeeewwwww :lol: can just imagine him wriggleing out of a net and into my shoe or something :lol:
 
loving the tanks

I'm sure its more satisfying getting a poorly oscar and watching him bloom and fatten up. I've just been watching mine. lovely fish
 
yeah definatly is.. i could have had a beautiful baby O, but then what would have happened to bo.. my concience wouldnt let me leave him there.......tho i do wish id seen him jump at the store :lol: nar love him to bits, and his personality is shining through already
