That's really neat lookin!! I like the natural look like that. What is your equipment, flora, and fauna?

**Damon** · 09-30-2005, 11:20 PM

Good start but I don't think all those plants are aquatic. Can you post some names for us?

**Cichlid Man** · 10-01-2005, 04:18 AM

They all look aquatic to me, I've had all of these plants in my tanks at some point.
Jonno, I love the shoal of cardinals. What's your pH and water hardness like?

Lara · 10-01-2005, 06:25 AM

I can't see a shoal, I can see five, but they are very cool! Love your new avatar Cichlid Man, is this your dream look? Very smooth

Jonno · 10-01-2005, 02:28 PM

I dnt use any co2 just plant fert, me ph is about 7.4 when i last checked they are all aquatic plants the one that looks like a fern is called an umbrella plant and the one in the background are a amzon sword and a green & white dracula plant(excuse spelling) my water where i am from are soft. And i have 8 cardinals but the other 3 must be hideing

Great job, What size is the tank? I love the natural looking aquariums.

Jonno · 10-05-2005, 05:07 PM

its a 35 gal (uk)

shev · 10-05-2005, 05:24 PM

The back plants ("green & white dracula plant") appear to be dracaena sanderiana. not a true aquatic plant. or at least some kind of sanderiana. dont know about the fern.

looks good though.

Lydia · 10-05-2005, 09:11 PM

I have heard that plant isn't a true aquatic plant too, but I have had one in my tank for at least 6 months and it is still fine.

Doodles · 10-06-2005, 08:55 AM

I thought is was way bigger like a 125 gallon or 150 gallon. It's weird, depends on how the picture I guess.

Georgia Peach · 10-06-2005, 09:02 AM

looks great!

What's your pH and water hardness like? __________________ If you have a big enough tank with enough hiding places, pH of around 7, you can keep virtually any fish together as long as all the fish are around the same size and these two groups of fish are avioded: Serrasalmus Tetradon(figure eights and dwarfs are the exception). I keep a successful community of fish in a 4 foot tank including the following families: Cichlids, tetras, loaches, gouramis, barbs, rainbows, livebearers, killiefish, catfish, puffers.
