Here are the pictures of the tank setup but I have not completely planted the tank yet so it may look a little bare. Also sorry about the glare.

Looks good.

 

[Spcichlids]

are you planning on adding any other plants? look nice so far

 

[fishboy199413]

Yeah I would like to add lots of crypts and more moss to fill it out.

Well it has been awhile since I updated this journal but is doing well. It does not look much different but the plants have filled in a little more. I have also stocked it with:

20 Boraras maculatus
Some Emerald Danios
Tons of Cherry Shrimp
Some Otos
Possibly 3 Dario hysginon but I jave not seen them in a while

It looks good. I like how you have one area where most of the plants are planted.

Hey I was wondering what I fish I should add to compliment the fish in there presently? Some of the fish that I am looking at are green neon tetras, cardinal tetras, Trigonostigma hengeli, or something else. what do you all think? I was thinking green neons becasue I have seen how they look when acclimated but they do not always look very bright. I plan to add a school of 10 or so. Give me your advice please.

What do you guys think I should add?

 

[pseudomugil]

some otos, for the price of some blanched zuchini every week, they will rid your tank of algae, and look cute while doing it!

 

[fishboy199413]

I actually already have some otos and shrimp in there. I am looking for fish that will compliment the other fish that swim midwater.
