Just wanted to share my new and improved 10 gallon. I bought 4 albino cory's from ronw007 and they are doing well. I planted the tank and used PFS. Comments/suggestions are always welcome. Pictures aren't that great.

I do have a bolivian ram in there. He was getting picked on in the 55 gallon so I moved him. He's not doing so well. I'm not sure how much more I can put in there. If anything, I think I'll add more cory's. I love the appearance and was surprised at how well it turned out. I'm thinking of adding more plants also.

maybe more plants and take out one of the rocks, I love the look of those rocks but it would give the corys more room to do their thing

NIce start! HOB filters take up less room than the internal filters. Do you have a background? Can't tell because the glare.

The background is all black. It makes the sand stand out more and gives better light in the tank.

I went to Leslies Pool Supply. It is on Mira Mesa Blvd.

Yeah I just figured they would like the hiding spots. They sure are all over the tank.

Nice job! :clap:
My only suggestion would be to pull out one rock, add a small piece of driftwood, and some more low-light plants.

And sorry about the Bolivian Ram. I hope he makes it.

I ended up putting sand in my 55 gallon and now everyone is happy. The albinos love it. They race back and forth. I'll post new pics later.

Well the four albinos I had have multiplied. I count 71 eggs in the 55g and I have about 30 hatchlings in the 10g. Needless to say, some of these guys may not make it.
