every fish in the tank is between 4 and 6 inches. i also have red zebras, powder blue pindanis, yellow labs and a rainbow shark.

i'll shoot a youtube video in the next day or so.
 
thanks, the tank is a 50.

took out the driftwood. filled it with rocks but i REALLY like that driftwood and would love to use it. don't know how much it's affecting PH. i've had it in there with them for months and they seem fine.
 
thanks!

thoughts/opinions/ideas? i like it being really open but at the same time it's kind of plain.
i have a hard time making caves/hiding places because of the size and shape of the rocks. and my big pleco has knocked over my formations a time or two.
 
I'm a community tank kind of gal, but my jaw just dropped... seriously!! Beautiful tank! Beautiful Fish! I wouldn't change a thing!! (y)
