wimps as usual ;)

I was going to use it as a breeder for Uaru "orange" but changed my mind (they are going back into the 300 soon). Decided to set it up as a "No-Tech" planted tank. The onions are my favorite!! :D Didn't pay too much attention to aquascaping as I'm still trying to figure out which plants are too tasty.

I have a crazy plan for this tank :nilly: Will update again once I re-stock it.

The usual source :) A friend of his collected a group in Peru and I managed to get a trio after weeks of constant bugging :D They are a lot more aggressive than I though....the male already took out the smaller female :cry:

I gathered from a few of your previous posts that you had bad experience with them. What happened?

Yep this is going to be a dwarf tank with the Guianacara's being the giants. The floating plants are frogbits - I love them! They send roots down, which looks really cool. The fish are a lot more comfortable too. The 5th pic is a Laetacara thayeri male.

Hi Peter.. Can't wait to see what you are gonna do with this tank..:popcorn::popcorn:I'm sure it's gonna be awesome... TC Sue

Thanks Sue :) I'm probably going to get flamed after the tank is fully stocked :D
 
I love the look of this tank. One of the most natural I have ever seen. What kind of plant is that tall one in the back middle?
 
Cool tank Peter. I love the onion plants to. I have some going in the 125g but they probably won't last long. I really like your scape.
