Hi from germany

[Anja]

Hi guys,

:text-imnewhere:
first I'd like to introduce myself. My name ist Anja, I'm 28 years old and I'm from germany.
I've been breeding fish (mainly from asia) round about 10 years.
During the last years, I got hooked on waterplants, especially Rotala species.
Atm I've got about 100 different waterplants in 14 tanks (12-240L).
My latest project would be to create a planted blackwater tank for some betta rubra.

Different countries, different styles ....
So let's see what's different.
I hope that I'll get some new inspirations and maybe I could help with some plant ID problems.

Hi Anja,

You have come to the best place if you are 'hooked on plants'... some great advice on here - so can you get some photos up sometime for us?

Welcome along Anja!

Do you mind if I ask what kind of fish you have in your avatar image, I don't think i've seen any like that before but it's hard to tell when there are so few pixels

 

[Anja]

It's a pair of Microctenopoma ansorgii - Ornate climbing perch.

Thanks for the information.

They certainly look striking! I thought they would be bigger than that from the picture

Hallo und Willkommen!

Sehr interessante Anlagen. Danke für das Teilen.

 

[Anja]

They are really cute And not that big.... one of the smallest from the ctenopoma species.

Thx for welcoming me, Georg. I think, I saw you while the trade in Hannover this year
