It's going to complete it's 9th month of life by the end of this March. Quite chuffed with the way it's held up. Probably the only tank that has lasted for me this long so far. I recently tied some morimo balls on to some of the lava rocks and now i have a carpet. Thank you Mark Evans for giving me the idea.
They are so easy to maintain. But then not all had been well. About 3 weeks ago i bought some anubias petite nanas & added them to the tank. I forgot to rinse them out properly,....& they must have had some residual pesticides in them because 2 days later i wiped out my entire shrimp population.. A hard lesson learned.
My fishes are fine though.
This is how it looks now,....i am thinking of adding some more plants later on because the background area kind of looks a bit empty.
