Got my tank on Saturday and have the water cycled, I put in some of my rocks but I need to get some more or a large piece of driftwood to fill it up nicely...I have my fish in now as well. I have 2 molly's (lost one due to a bully) 2 zebra danios,(lost one due to the same bully) 2 koi angels-a triple black and a marble, 3 ghost shrimp and 2 rope fish.
My rope fish have grown a little bit as well because when I got my first female she was about 8" long and I measured her against the glass today and she is a full 10" and starting to get a bit of iridescent tint to her scales--looks really cool under the lights. My male who was larger from the get go seems to be putting on a few lbs (ok maybe ounces...) since I started tossing freezedried blood worms into the tank. After I use up this container, I am going to purchase them some frozen or live bloodworms and see what happens.
One of my ghost shrimp had some babies hatch 2 days ago, but I have seen nothing of them yet. I will keep you posted it any of them survive. (fingers crossed)
I am going today to purchase another female molly soI can breed them for my friends oscar and my mothers cichlids...also going to get yet another danio....I would like to get another set of schooling fish today as well for the tank-i am just not sure what as of yet..Also today I have to pick up another filter for my 90 because the one that I have is not larger enough to keep up (for like a 40 gal tank i believe) I will be running them together.
Plants have been ordered for this tank and I am still waiting on those as well.I will post pics afterwards, but here is how the tank looked as of setup.
