Jen's 10g

Here is my low tech 10g tank. It has 2wpg and i occasionally dose some ferts.
Plants: val, amazon sword, a few pieces of rotala, moss balls and I'm not sure what the plant in the back is
Animals: White Clouds, Platy, Amano Shrimp, Ghost Shrimp, Apple Snail, pond snails, MTS, tiny limpets...

Right after I set it up...


Got a background a few weeks later...


Most recent pic...


Some more pics of the inhabitants...

Here are some more White Cloud pictures that I took the other night. I thought they turned out pretty good.

Those are some awesome pics! Looks like they posed for you!

Fish #2 isn't looking so happy though- maybe he was just having a bad hair day?

I thought they might be but wasn't sure...

In all seriousness, though, if his fins are clamped like that all the time, something's not right... he's being picked on or is coming down with something; just something to keep an eye on?

No, he's not like that all the time, he was just in the middle of swimming and I happened to catch him with them down. It just seems to me like thats the way they swim, the fins pop up and down as they move.
Thanks for the concern though.

Yeah, they have red lips. It's kinda funny because when I got them I didn't know the genders but only one had really red lips so I said it was wearing lipstick...then I found out it was a male, I guess they are just cross-dressers.

Good- sounds like it was just a bad hair day then!
