Here's my tank:
Filter- Aqua clear 20 (with sponge, carbon, and bio-max running)
Heating- Tronic 50 watt (77-80 degrees)
CO2- DIY
Lighting- about 2 watts per gallon
Substrate- onyx sand
Plants- Rotala Indica
Anubius Nana
Moneywort
Hairgrass
Wisteria
All kept trimed leaving plenty of swimming space
Decor- One piece of drift wood almost splits the tank in half diagnoly
2 small pieces of white honeycomb rock
Here's my question:
Is this a good setup for 2 german blue rams? I saw them for the first time at a lfs and I found them to be incredibly beautiful. My tank has been currently running for almost a month now and all nitrates and ammonia are pretty much gone. I am going to running for 2 more weeks to another month before I get any fish ( I'm patient, better safe than sorry. I would hate to kill any fish). I was starting to look for fish to add and these struck me as the ones I want. I hope this setup fitts their required habitat. Also if they are compatible with this enviornment, what fish and/or inverts are ok with them? shrimp? algea eaters? corys? If they can't live in this enviornment are their any dwarf cichlid that can? Thank you to anyone who replies. Sorry for rambling so much I just am really anxtious to know if I can do this. Again thank you.
