DIY cork structure

[rockhoe14er]

gotta sya its a good looking tank nice decor and plant. love cichilds of all kinds cacatouides are a good fissh to keep hope u have some fun in breeding un like mine eva did

yeah it would be fun to try and breed but only problem is that i have no way to get the eggs out because the caves i made are siliconed to the tank. So the only way i could save all the fry would be to remove all other apisto's. But i have a lot of small plant folliage that might help a few strong ones survive.

baby tears are lookin good, kitl look amazing in a year when they r totally covering. With my interior designing blood (thanks mom) i'd suggest you move the baby tears from the very top right cork structure, and put in an anubias, and in the very bottom right structure, a sword plant of some sort. I dunno, just makin suggestions xD. Lookin great!

hmm that might be interesting. My only thing is right now the HC loves the island because the co2 injection is right under the plant and it get's lot's of light so it's coming in really thick and pretty fast which i really like. I might trying putting some anubis petite in that area with it.

Swords might also look good in that area i'll have to look into trying that out. I really want a miniature look for the tank with small plants that make the tank seem a lot larger.

Thanks a lot Noir. The tank has actually changed a lot since then so one of these days when my girlfriend brings over her camera i'll take another one.
