amazon tank update

been a few weeks now and i just got the rest of my current stock into tank 1. [minus the barbs] haven't ordered the lights yet, but i borrowed one from my 20g for a few pics.
should have canopies on by next week.




some of that wood and all the rock will come out when i get to planting in a few months.
till then...

ty mom and figi. current stock is one bolivian ram, 2 whiptails, 5 clown plecs, 1 royal plec and 1 flash plec. will likely add 4 angels, 30 to 40 cardinal tets, apistogrammas or cockutoos, 5 more bolivians, and maybe something else if i find something i must have.

flora will be mostly a vallis type plant, w/ long thin leaves blowing about in the water.

Awesome set up. I'm planning to do an amazon tank after I move this summer. I'll probably send you a message to ask for advice once I start preparing to do the tank.
