Just did a water change so the clowns were hiding for the most part. Photos aren't too great. I was in a hurry when I took them.
The floating island is back. The stuff in the photos is what's left after I took out over half of it. It used to be wisteria, now it's all cabomba. *shrugs*

One of the bigger clowns in the tank. They're still little in comparison to old loaches of course, but they're sloooowly getting there heh. This ons is about 3.5inches long. There are 2 more that are just as big and then the rest are a little smaller.

The various anubias in the tank are doing extremely well. I should probably trim them but I'm afraid to mess with anything.

The jungle vallis is growing ALL over the place on the right side. Think I was trying to get a shot of a shoot that has found its way past the log that's in between it and the main val plant.

The main part of the jungle val isn't looking too great though. A few leaves have withered away before, but not like this. Not sure what's wrong, but probably has to do w/ the CO2 not mixing well. I need to clean the diffuser out and try to get it to stick properly. Right now all the CO2 is escaping in huge bubbles.

And that's it for now :)
Having a problem with BBA, but I think once I fix the little filter diffuser thing, it'll clear up.
Very nice tank
 
Alrighty, some random photos, mainly of the fish.
Plants aren't looking so hot right now b/c of a BBA outbreak. Haven't been able to do as many water changes as I should b/c of the weather, but hopefully once I start back doing once a week water changes the BBA will disappear. If not, I'll start doing spot treatment w/ excel.

Okedoke, first, a couple of plant photos, nothing great.
The floating island of plants used to be consisted of nothing but water wisteria, now it's a tangle of cabomba from a single stem that has managed to survive.

Next 2 are just of some dwarf sags that are spreading out a little bit. Really like these plants even though they seem to be slow growers (in my tank at least heh)

Now for a few fishy photos :)
One of the clowns being skittish but not wanting to go and hide like the rest of them just in case I was going to give them more food lol. Little oinkers

Mixture of the barbs, danios and rainbowfish. I really didn't like the barbs at first (when we only had the 6 reular tigers) b/c they were aggressive and nipped, but haven't had any problems at all once we added in the rest of them and I really enjoy them now. Even if we didn't have the cories, plecos, or the loaches in the tank, the barbs would make just as good of a clean up crew of the leftover food.

And the pleco. Usually whenever I want to take photos of the tank, it's hiding somewhere where I can't see it.
The pleco is about 6 inches now. I was expecting it to grow a lot quicker, but I'm glad it hasn't. People aren't lying when they say they're poop machines though.

One of these days I'll get some photos of the black ghost knife. It's usually in its little hideout up under the right side piece of wood. And it can sense me coming towards the tank b/c it always goes right back in to its spot. Haven't been able to hand feed it, but it knows that its food comes from the turkey baster. It's such a pretty fish, one of these days I'll have some good photos to share of it :)
 
I love this tank, with all of its "wildness". Looks great to me. It must be a delight to watch.
 
love this tank! i think it's amazing, as a relatively new fish keeper, it's very interesting for me to see the things other people have done with their tanks, please post more pics sooon!
