so finally decided to join a forum, Ive used many but never joined one till now.
So anyways I have a couple of tanks running right now. I had a Eclipse 29g which I just upgraded to a 54g corner(expensive but so worth it)
predrilled with overflow, I just had to add a sump(20g) and pluming. 150 total watts Current USA PC and DIY CO2 in progress. Its supposed to be an
amazon biotope with focus on dwarf cichlids.
In it I have:
Mikrogeophagus ramirezi(GBR)x1
Apistogramma gephyrax1
Apistogramma cacatuoidesx2
Apistogramma iniridaex1
Marbled Hatchets
Cardinal Tetras
Pygmy Corys
Otos
Guppys
Cherry Shrimp
Ghost Shrimp
Apple Snail
MTS




This is a top view of the tank


Gephyrax He's about 1.5" right now




This is my GBR he's about 2.4" Boss of the aquarium



Iniridae a little over 1" has nice full fins when he's not darting all over the place
He pretty much gets owned by all other cichlids


I also have a couple double red cacatuoides that I cant get good pics of.
Can you guys help me identify these plants:

Your tank looks great,well laid out!

Beautiful setup.

The third plant is an amazon sword, I think. And the fourth looks like some kind of crypt. The first two are those tricky kinds of plants that look kind of like a lot of things, but not exactly like anything.

Very nice. I wish I could keep plants alive in my tanks, but never have been able to. Yours are inspiring!

Very nice set-up. Love that GBR and the live plants! Welcome to the box

Welcome to you. Your tank is beautiful.

Thanks for the comments guys, I wanna add a bunch more plants to the tank once I get the CO2 system going.
I was thinking about adding a pair of discus to the tank, what do you guys think?
oh and this is my other aquarium its a 10g with 20w mini compact light.
Right now it houses about 40 Cherry Shrimp and a African dwarf frog.
Does anyone want the ADF, I find it too time consuming to feed him,you have to put bloodworms right infront of him, otherwise the RCS
will beat him to them!

love that shrimp setup looks great. thanks again for the hook up on those shrimp. i really hope that the yellow thai works out for you. that tank looks great tho so being as big as he is im sure he'll take over everything . love the beach in your shrimp setup lolz.

As always, its nice to meet other addicts!
