So today at the LFS that I work at I picked up 2 new wonderful cats. I got a striped Raphael and a Spotted Raphael. I know they're not monsters, but even the guy I worked with commented on how the spotted was one of the most beautiful specimen that he has seen. It is about 2" and the striped is a little smaller. I also got two plants that a customer brought in to go in the 55 with them.
The one plant has long thin blades and he said it will grow to take over a tank, it will also have an extensive root system. The other has darker broad leaves that are kinds wavy on the edges, it has a bulb, I'm not really sure what either are called, he told me, but I don't remember. They look very nice in the tank tho.
So that tank has 4 rocket gar, and ID shark all are about 5-6" and there is a senegal that is about 4.5" then the two new cats. I'm very excited, I think it is now one of my favorite tanks!

I'm still considering picking up a couple of Striped raphs that I found at a little Mom and Pop place not to far from here... They are alittle small though so I'm worried about getting them...
