About Yourself:
A New Zealander, I'm an educational technology facilitator at a large international school in Hong Kong. Apartment living only allows small planted environments and few pets. My aquarium is my piece of nature!
Fish Kept:
2 x Pleco, 4 x Pearl Gourami, 1 x Banded Gourami, 9 x Rasbora, 6 x Siamese Algae Eaters, 4 x Amano Shrimp
Corals/Plants:
Hardwood log with Bolbitis Heudelotii, Blyxa Japonica, Echinodorus Oriental, Echinodorus Red Flame, Pearlweed (Hemianthus Micranthemoides), Ludwigia Repens, Nymphaea Lotus var. Rubra, Crystalwort (Riccia Flutens)

Advice:
I'm only new to this game (4 months). Thought I would never get through the new-tank phase (algae and all) but as you can see perseverance pays off. Patience and attention to detail certainly helps.
Description:
My 40 gallon planted freshwater aquarium. I only discovered Takashi Amano after I started. Next time I'll try something in his style. Not a bad first effort though :-)

Hey, would you like a chocolate covered pretzle?
About Yourself:
Started keeping Axolotls, the whole venture evolved into keeping oddball African fish.
Gamertag: EdF4ce
Fish Kept:
All fish are African riverine species including:
1 x Elephant nose,
1 x African Brown Knife Fish,
6 x Featherfin Synodontis Catfish,
2 x Upsidedown Catfish,
2 x Kribensis,
2 x Spotted African Climbing Perch,
19 x Congo Tetras,
2 x African Butterfly Fish.
Corals/Plants:
Plants are all low light species: Java Fern, Anubias, Vallis.
Tank Size:
90 gallons
Advice:
If in doubt leave it out!
Research, Research, Research before buying any new fish, ensure that they are 100% compatible with your planned stock.
Oh and if you own or are planning on buying a Ropefish/Reedfish, DO NOT underestimate these guys, DO NOT leave any tiny gap in the lid no matter how small, plug up every gap. Master escape artists is an understantement! You have been warned!
Description:
90 gallon wider that it is tall as
it was originally home to 6 axolotls
and floor space was more important
than water depth. Sand substrate,
extreme low light.
It is now a planted african river
biotope tank. (yeah I know java fern
isnt african)
All fish are African riverine
species including:
1 x Elephant nose,
1 x African Brown Knife Fish,
6 x Featherfin Synodontis Catfish,
2 x Upsidedown Catfish,
2 x Kribensis,
2 x Spotted African Climbing Perch,
19 x Congo Tetras,
2 x African Butterfly Fish.
Plants are all low light species:
Java Fern, Anubias, Vallis.
Tech:
LIGHTING:Very low tech, 1 x 40w
Hagen Auaglo flourescent and 1 x 24w
Actinic blue moon light for night
time viewing. Its a miracle that any
plants grow hence why I have had to
sacrifice a "true" African biotope
by using Java Fern as it is one of
the only plants to survive such low
light conditions.
FILTRATION: Fluval 304 external
cannister filter and Fluval U4
internal filter.
HEATING: 2 x Interpet 350w
submersible heaters.
Dosing: None, except the addition of
black water extract to darken and
condition the water during water
change.
