55 gallon, fluval 304, 2 12 inch bubble wands, 1 piece of driftwood, 1 hidey hole synthetic tree stump, marine blue tank backing, mostly neutral gravel (the black bits are from my first tank a 37g, used to "cycle" this tank). Tank hold 4 male fancy guppies, 7 female fancies, 5 neon rainbows (lovely blue iridescence), 5 pink glo fish, 2 yellow glo fish (they are amazing, flitting about the tank), 2 platys (must confess they were the sacrificial fish for the cycle, no, I cycled with old media and then put them in 2 weeks later, not a true "fish-in" cycle) they have thrived to the point of fry! 7 platy fry, 1 cory and the pleco (waiting for ID help) AND the snails.

I added black curtains to the open shelves of my cabinet. Didn't really want to look at the meds I keep on hand, the testing kits and all the other stuff that goes with the terroirity all the time. Felt it would take away from the fish!

i think small active fish are great. close ups would be nice but still like the pic you have. keep it up.
