Hello,

I thought I would put some pics up of my beloved tanks! I have had the biggest one for about 2 weeks now and it's doing great!

These photos were taken on my phone so I am sorry about the quality, or lack of it! lol

The first is from my small tropical tank, I don't hae many pictures from there yet. This one is overall, I added the java fern and red tiger lilly (top left) today from my big tank -

The next ones are from my biggest tank, the one I got 2 weeks ago. I rearranged it today and split up the tiger lilly into 3 plants, and put one in the above tank. This one is a bad photo but shows the overall tank -

P.S. Sorry but I don't know how to make these all one post! :/

This one is from the middle area of the tank. I think you can just about see 1 bab and 1 adult angel -

This is a photo of Mr. T sleeping that I took a moment ago -

P.S. Anyone know what he is exactly? Was bought as a leopard platy but what's with his mohawk fin?!

This is the nighttime shot I mentioned above, he is resting on a peice of wood. He only ever comes out at night and I never expected him out tonight after the distruption of the tank. He was not pleased!!

Well, there you have it! I hope it wasn't too boring! I know that I love to look at other people's tanks as I appreciate how much work goes into trying to get something to look natural! LOL I am not sure if everyone is the same though.

Comments and suggestions welcome, especially on Mr. T. Is he a sailfin platy? I have another platy which looks quite different.

:D
 
:D Beatuiful tank! I love the way they're decorated. The fish are amazing! The Clown Loach looks really cute! I'm planning to get three soon for my 46 gallon. You just tempted me more!

Mr.T is a sailfin molly. How large is he? His large back fin is the reason they're named sailfin molly because it looks like a sail when it's erect. Mr.T is very gorgeos! :hyper:
 
I thought he was a platy?! He seems to like my black and dalmation mollies though, I asked whether the 2 species would breed in the livevearers forum. Mr. T really likes Larry! Looks like I would have 2 females and 1 male = lots of chiddlers! OMG what do I do?

I love my clown loaches. When I first got them I couldn't get a big one because they were way too expensive and I wanted a group. They were £35 for 4" and £7 for 2". Anyway, I got 3 2" but when I got my new tank I got loads of fish free including a 4" clown loach!

YAY
 
:D Mr. T is still a little guy! Sailfin mollies can grow up to four inches. I love Mr. T's color! Once again, beautiful fish! :wub:
