I really like your tank, bigstick. It's really healthy and colorful looking.

I have a suggestion about your fish. I really like the Harlequin Rasboras but the color of the Cardinal Tetras clashes with them, IMO. I've used Glow Light Tetras with Harlequins before. The orange stripe of the Glow Lights complement the colors of the Harlequins and they look great together. Also, both of the fish school at different levels in the aquarium. Cardinals aren't really schooling fish but they stay in shoals. They look really good with Rummy Nose Tetras. Well, that's my two cents worth. I thought that I would share.

Thanks for this informing post and I hope you keep it coming.
