BK828- Thanks! . I haven't tried to breed the micro rasboras. I have been messing around with danios. I have some long finned red danio fry right now. They are so neat looking.

seAdams- I appreciate the comments! That is what I was going for. Using really small plants makes it look larger than it really is. It's like a little mini world in there.

ZooTycoonMaster- Thanks again! The plant in the upper left is Fissidens fontanus. It could use a little trim. I also need to get the duckweed out of there. I hate that stuff! The only way I know to erradicate that stuff is to get a fish that eats it...

No the fish don't really bother the shrimp food at all. Even the baby shrimp powder doesn't seem to interest them. Their regular diet is TetraColor flakes. I supplement with frozen daphnia.

Mizu-chan- Thank you! I think it will look better when the back red plants fill in and the UG gets better. It's a little unruly right now.

MY husband hates the big sponge filter. He wants me to go back to the net bag over the intake. I tend to agree with him as the bag intake doesn't show. The sponge thing is so huge. Unfortunately I have to clean the bag thing about every 3 or so days, a real pain. Thought I'd try the sponge to see if I can live with it.
