I've had my tank up and running for about 2.5 months now. It's been a learning curve and it's still a work in progress, but I wanted to show how things are progressing.
I'm still working on the aquascape. The built in overflows definitely get in the way. If I had to do it again, I'd get a regular tank and have it drilled.
My gold severum is turning into a nice looking fish.
EBA is growing nicely and is my most personable fish. He likes to nip my fingers during feedings.
My largest Geo tapajos is starting to blossom a bit.
I really love how the Columbian tetras utilize the 6ft tank. These are great little fish. They look nice under the blue night too. Pictures never do them justice.
Lastly, my gold nugget pleco. He's in this spot 99% of the time. No idea if he's eating, but I assume he would have starved if not. I'd pass on this fish if I were doing it all over.
I'm still kicking around the idea of adding a rotkeil severum. I'm also planning to make changes to the lighting. All in all, this has been the most rewarding home project I've ever done. Every day I'm excited to watch these fish. I even love my twice weekly water changes. Once I get this tank up to par, I'll definitely be looking to start a second.
