long time lurker first post, hope it goes well, hahaha
Please help me with adding colorfull fish to the tank in order to keep my fiancee intrested and not bored of the tank
I have a 30 gal tank set up for 4 yrs, its has been a lowbudget tank and slow plant growth but i enjoy it so much. Kinda green to the whole world of aquariums but i am slowly learning as I go.
So far my tank has been doing well and all my fish are happy,and the plants are doing better and starting to grow quicker since the c02 system.
I am in the process of gathering parts to build a 75+gal to give the loaches more space as I didnt think they would out grow this tank so quick. In order to keep the future wife intreseted in the bigger tank this one needs more color
Pictures to come when I figure this site out
Specs as it sits
17watt t8 tinfoil reflector( i said budget) 3 inches from surface
DIY yeast c02 system (3 months old)
Pump filter for a 50 gal
black sand substraight
root tabs
my levels are
ph 7.6
ammonia 0
nitrite 0
nitrate 10
temp this summer 74'
plants
3 giant vals
4 corkscrew vals (recently added)
bacopa australius from day one
lots of java fern
1 anubus? that loves to shoot new leaves
6 crypt wedtii
Fish
6 danios 3 yrs ago started at 13
2 weather loaches around 6-7 inches from day one
6 otto's in the last 3 weeks
thanks for the help in advance
