Quickish video featuring both of my tanks. Excuse the Youtube quality. Music is A Perfect Circle - Three Libras remix from the Amotion DVD.

Apologies for the floating 'specs', videos are taken not too long after feeding crushed up food in both tanks to promote scavenging.

3x54W T5HO on the Community Tank, although two of the starters/something have blown so it's on a single 54W currently, they're all pretty hardy lowlight plants and the tank gets a fair bit of sun.. but no algae; I haven't cleaned glass for months, minus a quick do on the front every now and then). 4x54W on the Eartheater tank and it still struggles to grow plants with Ferts due to the depth.

Yeah Chocolates still jetting along.

Balzanii came from Pet City actually, I went there to pick up some 'German' Blue Rams (That apparently weren't so German) and they were there so I instantly snatched them up, bought the last two. I actually believe they're from a bloke called Chris that I know from a local forum who I actually picked up my Orange Heads from, as I remember seeing them at his place for the first time alongside the Orange Head tank, a full size colony of 5-6 and they were stunning. Was also the first time I'd seen, and heard of, Biotodoma cupido, which he had a trio of in a 6 foot setup with 3-4 Adult Orange Heads and a few full sized 3 year old A. heckelii.

Just as a side note, I'm not usually a fan of Angels but the two I've got in the 'Family' community tank are actually beautiful fish, they're a bit timid of the camera though!
