New Tank Ideas

[elspudo247]

I've been given a H2Orb which is kinda like the largest biorb only bigger (im guessing about 70litres). i accepted it originally because i needed a nursery tank but now its sat there doing nothing. i've got a picture in my mind of it really heavily planted with just 1 or 2 select fish in there but thats where im stuck - ive had a community tank for years - platys, tetras, danios, silver dollars, a loach and a common plec. i love planted tanks but with silver dollars they never last long!

Anybody got any ideas what i should do - which plants would you recommend??? which fish???

Anybody got any pictures or ideas???

i'd be greatful for any ideas or advice. thanks.

Oh, i should probably point out too, the H2Orb has an internal filter at the top of the tank not at the bottom like the Biorb so it wont affect planting or anything. (I've actually purchased a new filter because i didnt feel the original one was up to scratch.)
