Aquarium Advice Regular
Hi y'all,
Here's a pick of my new tank, it's a 60 gallon... You can see some of the Frontosa's (4 total) hanging out on the right... If you look closely, my black Tropheus Duboisi is hanging out over there also. I've got 2 Leleupis, 1 Calvus, and 1 pleco also. The Tropheus always steals the cucumber pieces from the pleco, poor pleco! Anyway... I inherited some live plants along with this whole tank setup from a friend... Is there any problem with mixing live plants with Africans... My Duboisi loves pecking at it, but he doesn't really do any damage. I couldn't tell you what kind of plants they are though, you can see them in the picture, there are 4 of them. I want to add some more live plants.... Good idea? Bad idea? Type of plants?
I know someone will ask... The tank is cycled, it was previously set up, drained, moved to my house, and immediately refilled... I still let it sit for a few weeks before adding the fish. Ammonia is zero, Nitrates and nitrites are nill.... PH is 8.2.. Temp is 81.
