BAM!

Theres two rams in there... Stock list to be added soon.

Very nice!
Any plants to be added?

yeah im not sure what will grow.. its pretty low light.. i would like some grass or swords and some moss...

Whats your plans to stock? I like the looks of it. It makes me think my 75 has too much rock work going on, as per because they are always hiding. That tank looks open and beautiful.

that is one lamborghini style looking angel!

Looks awesome! I'd definitely add in some Anubias, maybe an Amazon sword or 3, and some small patches of moss. All low light and the mixture of bright and dark greens would go well in there! I use Lace Java ferns in between the cracks of my rocks and it looks REALLY cool. Keep up the great work!

Oh, and before I forget... Your layout would be PERFECT for something like this guy did with his Java ferns:

What have Anubias, Java Fern, moss or Pogostemon helferi(in the picture) to do with an Amazon biotop ?

Everything. That's what. Plus if you read 3 posts down, he says that he wants to plant some swords, moss, or grass. Figured I'd throw in some ideas.
