South American community tank

[tear-scar]

The info for this tank is listed below. I'm very happy with it, but will keep working! (note: plants not necessarily from South America)

Will post images of individual fish . . . soon . . .

Looks good.

Got any pics of the hatchets?

 

[tear-scar]

Thanks for the compliments guys.

I'll put up the first specimens pic:

Here you go cometcattle, hatchets!!

Actually, these guys are a lot easier to take pictures of than the tetras or cories . . . they stay still at least SOME of the time . . .

These are my 3 smaller guys, they're about 1.75 inches; lot bigger than when they got out of the shop, but I have an older one that's about half an inch bigger. He was off to the side somewhere I think . . .

Wonderful tank tear-scar! Love those plants! Your hatchets are soooo adorable! I used to have some in a previous tank...they are so much fun!

Nice looking tank - just curious - what's that white wall on the back?

The tank is placed in front of the glass door looking out on the court yard; I wanted the plants to get more light. What you see outside, is the courtyard.

how old is the tank, caue those plants look huge or were they bought like that?

I've been fiddling around with this tank for about 9 months, but most of the current plants are recent additions. The Mondo Grass and Anubias have been growing for a while, but the taller plants are actually mor recent additions.
