I really like the pic of the overgrown 10g. It looks like something you'd see in the amazon. Whats that plant filling in the background?

Nice clowns :-) How big are they? They look like they're at least 4"

The background plant in the 10g is cardamine lyrata(japanese bitter cress).

I have several species of loach in my tank, clowns, modestas, yoyos, and banded. The largest clown is about 4.5-5", the smallest is a little over 3" and the yoyo pictured is well over 5", the modestas are around 4" each, while the banded loach is just under 3". The pics just don't do the fish justice as far as size is concerned...that angelfish is huge..almost as big as my hand.
