Triplets

[BigTom]

Well I've more or less forgotten where I'm posting about these tanks, so I figured I'd just stick this up on its own.

Finally got the last of the three nanos up and running, and was lucky enough to bag some Indostomus paradoxus to put in it (coolest fish ever). Will put up a seperate post about those guys in a few days.

Have now run out of flat surfaces

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! I absolutely love it. Who needs a boring tv when you have this.

[BigTom]

Heh yeah, they're right next to my desk and are a terrible, terrible distraction.

 

[foxfish]

Only for the dedicated aquarist really cool mate.

Naturally I'm drawn to the tank with the Pothos growing like crazy!

 

[BigTom]

Yeah the pothos adapted really quickly, it's bunging out new roots all over the place.

 

[Eboeagles]

Very nice if only my mrs would let me have multiples!

Can you take a straight on shot so we can see them in their full glory!

Never heard of those fish either but googling them they look pretty cool for sure. How many can you keep in one nano?

 

[Kristoph91]

I assume these are also non filtered?

 

[Kristoph91]

They are brilliant. Beautiful

 

[BigTom]

All running Dennerle corner eckfilters. Could probably have them filterless though to be honest, now that the plants are established.

 

[Kristoph91]

Do you have any pictures of the tenants ?

 

[BigTom]

Do you have any pictures of the tenants ?

There are videos of the Dario and Trichopsis in the journal threads for two of these tanks -

Still working on footage of the Indostomus.

 

[Kristoph91]

Thanks mate
The Dario hygsinon are very cute and inquistive.
The Trichopsis are also very nice. Are they the gourami that croak ? Think I saw a vid on here of them croaking !

 

[BigTom]

Yeah just heard them croak for the first time today actually. They've grown quite a lot since I took the video, starting to get jiggy I think.

 

[Kristoph91]

Haha brilliant. hopefully you'll have a bunch of new ones soon ?
