I wish I could get the fish to swim out front :angryfire I still haven't tracked down those Congo tetras yet. The P. buffei were actually swimming around when I took this picture, but they move so fast my camera couldn't even see them at this slow shutter speed.
 
Nice looking tank... and don't you love how when you need to take pics of tanks like this the fish are always no where to be found... i have the same problem with my paludarium...
 
The set up is lookin pretty awesome. Cant wait to see some updates with those congo tetras

Wow! Thats really looking good Hydro! Now get those buffalo's out front and showing off!

Yeah I might just try to sell off the P. buffei. They are pretty cool, but they just hover all day long in the back under the riparium plants. I will definitely keep the Steatocranus however. He also hides much of the time, but swims up front often enough and he has tons of personality too. Have you guys ever heard of dwarf Congo tetras? I heard that there was a dwarf variety and that would work better in here because it's not all that much water.
 
You need some African butterflies for that tank. They'd look great hovering around the surface. I've also heard of African jellybean tetras. I don't know if those are what you're talking about, but they are a small African tetra
