    Cool My freshwater 19 gallons or 72 Litres

    Hi everyone, i am new here so i want to introduce my tank. I am from Croatia so excuse me for bad english, i will try to be clear.
    Here is my 19 gallons (72 litres) freshwater aquarium. This is my second aquarium and it is 2 month old. My first tank was 10 years old without any change in that period.
    After my first tank era ended i wasn't involved in aquaristics for two years. Now i got the new one.

    For the surface i chose potting soil and volcanic, and over that gravel grain size 2-5 mm.
    Fauna consists: three Corydoras, two Ancitrus, six Indian batis, five x-ray tetra and twelve Otocinclus.
    About equipment, there is a DIY external filter with a flow of 600 liters, a small diy skimmer and diy lighting 3x18w T8...

    Welcome! That is a very beautiful tank. We have a member here who breeds otocinclus. James 0816 is his handle. Here is his long and fascinating thread about the process: http://www.aquariacentral.com/forums...he-Oto-Journal

    Thank you everyone,
    I make pictures with cheap 7 mpx camera, but i try to darken the room, minimize exposure and turn off the flash, so that is why the image is a little darker. I also hold the camera on the stand and use a timer switch to eliminate camera shake.

    I love that set up and your fish selection! You have done a really nice job. Using a stand for your camera is a good idea, I may do that next time (my "camera" is the bad one on my cell phone so having it stay still might actually work and make my pics somewhat ok )
