33gal tank

[fyrefish]

Hi,
I wanted to share my 33gal tank which is finally cycled, been waiting a long time to give my apisto a new home, and wanted to share it.

I'm still waiting for some wood to sink and some plants to grow in more, I got a few new plants today. I've gone wild with the crypts, about 4-5 of what I think it crypt lucens and the flatter, bronze coloured one in the front. (any ID would be useful.)
I'll either add the apisto later tonight or maybe tomorrow. I'll be sure to share more pictures when the plants grow and I get some more tannins!

It may not be much, but this is what I made about 7 months ago. I think I've come a long way from there.

Hi all,

I've gone wild with the crypts, about 4-5 of what I think it crypt lucens and the flatter, bronze coloured one in the front. (any ID would be useful.)

It looks like it might be a form of <"C. wendtii">, but naming is a mess for Cryptocoryne spp.

I think I've come a long way from there.

You certainly have, but you know what I'm going to say just "more cover required".

cheers Darrel

Yeah, I'll be moving her current hide in here as well when I move her, and hopefully use the wood to create more shelter when it sinks, but I feel it does need more caves. I was looking at some artificial hides at my lfs, but they were all quite large and didn't look very natural. If anyone could recommend something small and natural looking, like maybe a little cave cluster, I would appreciate it. Not looking to breed, just to help the fish feel more secure.
