A new project for me, currently settling in; with fish to be added next week or after.

24l tank 24x8x8", driftwood and numerous Catappa Indian almond leaves for blackwater Biotope.

Stock will be 6 clown Killifish. Controversially, I've removed the filter as it made the tank too clear, I may or may not opt for a nano sponge filter; but i'm keen to replicate their natural environment as closely as possible, i.e. Still water etc. This will necessitate more emphasis on water changes, but is doable.

Will update soon, only thing to do is wait for the leaves to break down a bit.

Well, an update, I installed a small internal filter; decided it was best. But positioned spray bar against the glass so basically zero flow.

Got 3 killi, 1 male and 2 females. Media is already cycled. IMG_20170923_013546.jpg IMG_20170923_013540.jpg
