i'm envisioning an african (possibly tanganyikan) setup in the near future eh? lol
I always thought half cylinder tanks would be perfect for a tang setup since you can make a half mound of rocks (large and small) that could simulate the natural habitat of many rock-dwelling tanganyikans. Plus you wont have to worry about all the parameters of a planted tank setup. and as an added bonus, tangs can be quite colorful, so the wife would most likely enjoy the overall effect.
Just a thought, but I still like the angels. Kinda looks like those sardine tanks you see at aquariums where they are just circling around in a tight ball around you.
That tank would be perfect for paddlefish,just my 2cents,lol.Where did you get the 10' ft. streamer plants ? I got a bunch off ebay for real cheap for my 15,000 tank.
