Hi all!
Here's my new tank (155Liters, 120cm x 36cm x 36cm).
I got my trio A. atahuapla, 10 Copella nattereri and 5 Nannostrumus marginatus in it and they all seem happy with their new surroundings.
One of the livingroom plants i had growing as riparium plant, in the old one didn't like to get out of the water, so now i'll have to wait for it to grow back in.
I will be adding a few more leaves on the right hand side, to make a deep leaf litter bed.
I used as much of the detritus, sand and leaves from the old tank, as possible, aswell as seedpods and wood. -Though i did a little more sand and some new wood.
There is Redmoore, Beech, Apple and Prunus root and branches in the stew
-And now... the pictures. (Sorry, for the oddball in the reflections...)
Ps. -would it be terrible wrong to add some Mayacara Flutilans? -In TomC's tavelogue, I spotted something that looked like an aquatic plant. If any it might be Toninna Fluvatiles, but that is a bit hard to find.
I aim for Rio Itaya, because of TomC's pictures. That's where i have found the most inspiration/info on a actual biotope.
Thanks in advance.
