It was around $200 shipped from Meyer off of Amazon last year.

Thanks, yes they are doing well in there. The Nurri was actually an afterthought. I had planned to leave that space open.

Thanks Chad, there are great fish in a planted tank. I was amazed how ell they did outside all summer. Even the girls have deep color. I never noticed the dominate males get an orange tint to their nose.

I saw a bay CB in the tank last wee but not since.

Great looking setup DogFish and the plants seem very healthy. I am always impressed when looking at a planted tank with sand in them!

Thanks! I was holding back until I got a better camera.

Yes Sir, common C. Nurii, most of it was from Ghazanfar Ghori. It's really all the dirt and this batch pales in compassion to what I made for Don (crazydaz).

Thanks but, as you spend more time here you see I'm all about the dirt that's under that sand.

And welcome to the site!
