That's very colorful and pleasant. I like your choices in fish - I think that it makes for a very nice community as long as you aren't overrun with fry.

[bunjiweb]

Nice, although I think it would be EVEN nicer with naturally coloured or uniform coloured gravel.

In response to the gravel comment....I wanted all natural, but try fighting with a 3 yr old who wanted the colored rocks, we compromised and only got one bag of the colored LOL!!

Ahhh now I know what STOTM stands for!! Thanks for the nomination!!
Still very new to this forum LOL!!

So far we only have fry from females pregnant before we got them...not even sure which female(s) gave birth....We did contact a local store though and said they will give us store credit for young fish we give them......probably going to have to use the credit to buy a bigger fry tank LOL!!

A better pic attached
