In the top picture - the two red fish, tetras?

Are one of them pregnant? It looks it.

the 2 orange fish are platys, 1 female and 1 male so yea, the female is bound to be pregnant. Love my RTB, shes my favourite

thanks for boost, just wasnt sure about the set up or if needed a lil change or move round maybe!! As for plants, havent got a clue haha, i buy what i like and what i think will look good.

yea, shes lovely!! always wanted one and then my LFS told me i could have one in my tank i was over the moon, she has been in there 4 months now and is no bother, cant wait till she grows more

Very nice tank, I wouldn't be surprised the the shrimp eventually manages to eat some of the neons though, as time goes on and the neons grow it will be less likely to happen .

 

[stonedcamel]

wow..... that right!! wouldnt have thought so but will keep an eye out for that, shes getting greedy and holds her own when it comes to food now though

Yep, here's a thread from a while ago where someone had problems with the shrimp eating neons: http/www.fishforums.net/index.php?showto...ing+tetra+again

And here's one of mine finishing off a fully grown cherry shrimp roll eyes:

Tank is excellent, only thing I would change is to remove all the fake plants .

 

[stonedcamel]

hey, that looks like my shrimp lol..... wow, thats suprising and will see if i lose any, is it just neons? she eats just bout anything, bloodworm, algae, flakes, catfish food.

the only fake ones i have are the moss balls which i thought filled a gap and gave a bit of cover and a couple of grassy ones..... think they shud go?
