Diamante Monos and Orinos Update *Load Warning*

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
nice pics! fts please :)

The only problem with getting a full tank shot is that I cant get a straight on shot on the tank because of furniture and not being able to back up far enough but I will see what I can do.

nice O's and good coloring on them all.. and agreed on ur tig as well.. whats the dems on ur setup?

Thanks man. My tank is 8x2.5x2. With the overflows, I figured it was meant to be a 240 but wasnt exact with the extra 6 inches from front to back.

Very nice collection. Love the feeding pics. Nice fat loach.

Thanks Ken. I tried to get the best feeding pictures possible. I will do better next time and take out the fake plants. I only have them in there to help keep left over pellets from making it to the overflows too fast. The powerheads dont get enough power on the opposite side of the overflows so pellets just float right down in.
 
Awesome cichla! The tig and the other cat look awesome! As does the tank. Well done on the scape and clarity. Awesome update!

What are the dims on the tank? And could we get some filtration pics and info?

Thank you gangster. The next update will be better with clarity and hopefully with the aquascaping. I havent done a water change in about a week so Ill do one the night before the next time I take pictures.

The tank is 8x2.5x2. I say 2.5 because its give or take an inch or two on width. But as far as filtration, I am running 2 FX5's with a 40 gallon sump with a mag7. One FX5 has two trays with all ceramic bio and then the the blue micro particle catcher. The other FX5 has two trays of ceramic bio and then the white water buffer. I realize the sump is a little small but I dont have a ton of room to work with underneath with the way this stand was built. It is built like a tank and the next time I move it I will probably build another stand myself so I can fit more underneath.
 
Sure Mike you can come out and take pics if you want, I'm sure your camera is a lot better than mine. Just let me know:)
