prolly not on the real plants...i dunno...i love fish..but i'm just taking it one thing at a time...i've only been keeping fish since august. i want to become an expert at one thing before i try another. hee hee

not sure how tall it is exactly, but its at LEAST 3 feet...possibly even four...i stood in a chair to aquascape it and i still couldnt reach the bottom of the tank. i used a spatula to move sand around the plants. lol

and yes, it was still quite cloudy in those pics...it's actually looking pretty clear now, another day or too and i should be able to post some better pics. thanks for your interest!

i have one angel in there now...she's my trooper...wil def add some angel playmates for her...not sure about the discus yet..i would love to have some, but i'm not made of money, ya know?

bri

 

[girlofgod]

pretty sure

i put a bunch of stuff from my established tank over...including filter media

bri

 

[girlofgod]

yes...and same as you..i cant wait...

 

[girlofgod]

47...and i love your avatar...thats the background on my razr

 

[girlofgod]

glad i could influence you! i haven't really given alot of thought toward stocking it as i have pretty much decided to go primarily with angelfish...i love them so and I want to give Sun (my angel) some playmates and maybe even try to breed in the future! other than that...i DO have my eye on a Black ghost knife or maybe a gold nugget pleco...and there are some platys and danios in the tank already....so at this point it's anybodys game...

i could really do anything with it...but there arent really alot of interesting fish to choose from at my lfs...so i am open to ideas...i DID finally see two rasboras last night , they were silver with black patches on their sides...kinda pretty...but again, i will need suggestions that will co-habitate peacefully with angels!

thanks alot! and i dont think that orange is girly! :wink:

[girlofgod]

oh, and i plan on adding a hydor Ario for a little color and aeration, and a powerhead as well was on my plan. thanks for asking!

bri

 

[girlofgod]

i am not a chauvanist! i was just saying that for joutei's benefit, that orange isn't girly or manly..it's a nice in-between color....could go either way...

:BIGweepy:

 

[girlofgod]

yea yea yea...thats what ALL men say...

 

[girlofgod]

so..updating my thread...got some newer fish to share and i wanted to update...so enjoy!

the flash made her eye look funny =P
