Default 60P Iwagumi - First Try

Starting my journal for this tank. Whenever I tell my wife that it's "Iwagumi" style, she looks at me and asks if I said ooeygooey. Now she just thinks it's funny. Oh well.

Up to 15 Espei Rasboras, 5 standard oto cats and 1 dwarf gourami. Also a few amano shrimp and a couple nerites and a few PFR.

edit -- Added PFR's back Jan 2013 to help with scavenging stuff out of the carpet. Very large blyxa trim and replant in progress. Current growth rate is 10 stems of blyxa grows into 200+ stems of blyxa in 3 months time.
