Overall, this tank has been running since April 2012. It has gone from a shrimp only tank, to a low tech planted fish tank, to a high tech tank fish tank, even though I do not have many fish now (a single glowlight and 2 clown plecos. Need to add more glowlights ). Anyways, here is what the tank looked like yesterday morning:
I like the plants, but it just simply wasnt scaped. In fact there wasnt any hardscape besides the apisto caves. However I decided to do a rescape. The idea of the scape was largely inspired by an SFBAAPS member's tank, in fact this tank is essentially my attempt to recreate his scape in a 20L. Here is a picture with the tank all empty:
Then today:
I need to play with my camera, as I am not completely satisfied, but here are the pictures of the new scape:
As you may notice, I have some rocks zip tied to the wood because they werent quite sinking yet. I will probably remove them in April, even though I could probably do so sooner, I want to be safe Now the main plant I want right now is AR mini for this spot right behind the rock with anubias petite.
Also I am thinking maybe some erios in the back right, but will probably wait until the tank is more situated. For now, I will start looking for fauna !
Hope you all enjoy!
