Well, I saw some nice ones and they are eating like pigs..........frozen food, brine, blood worms, Mysis shrimp, live brine as well.
I am planning on redoing the scape and reducing the plant species down to 6 or so species.
I like the species stock list for the fish I have planned, I might get 2 more fish for a total of 9 fish.
I need to get 4 more Royal farowellas, few more smaller cichlids, then that's done.
The plants are chosen on the color and form of the wood contrast and the slope design I have planned.
the plants grow too fast that way things are set up and I want a more stable scape. I have 30cm of growth per week on the L pantanal,
Too much.
I will keep the Gloss, might consider hair grass or HC some time later, a little blyxa, Erio setaceum, R pusillus, Crypt rosanervig, Tonia belem.
I have some small piece of wood I can add that are from this same piece and might work a bit with those.
Yet another tank done with EI and no issues with the fish
Yet folks still claim all sort of baloney about it and the ppms or nutrients.
Having kept and bred CRS's and now keeping Altums for my own personal tanks, bred discus, I have to really feel sorry for the clowns that claim otherwise, because I know the fish and add these nutrients. So if they have issues, I'm sorry, but it cannot be for the reasons they often claim.
