Hello Everyone. I recently got back into it from a nearly two year hiatus. I got a Hundred Gal that I had to whip into shape within two weeks (long story). I also got back My prized Female RTM "La Bruja" that I collected from My grandmothers stream in El Salvador. My Bud was fish sitting her for a year. During that time he put some mass on her and some great color as well as helped her recover from some HITH. I could not figure out the HITH cause as water changes were done weekly at 80%. I'm thinking the carbon from the HOB's.

Anyway she's doing amazing in her new home with the other inhabitants.

This is the stock list:
7.5-8" Female RTM "La Bruja"
3" Nicaraguense
3.5" V. Argentea
4-5" Female green Severum
6" Silver dollar
2x 3" tinfoils

This is the tank from start to finish. I had to sand and buff it to get rid of the scratches although some of the deeper ones remain. 3D background made with foam, Silicone, Quikrete Hydraulic water stop.
