David R's 2000L tank build

[David R]

Here's some more recent pics.





Largest altifrons


'Peru Altum' angels, laying eggs again


One of the six young angels from Pupuke, starting to colour up nicely


They know where their food comes from too


Largest L190


'Thin Stripe' L190 ex Henward


Another L190, ex Jamosfish


Two different patterned L190


And a hint of what's to come, apologies for the quality of these two pics, but the quarantine tank isn't exactly photogenic




And a short clip of the two thin striped royals having a little tiff.

Short video of the tank getting its afternoon feed, unfortunately none of the Panaques came out to graze, so I had to try do a "manual zoom" which ended up a bit shaky...

so I have a question for you? what kind of wood do you keep in your tank?

Haven't looked at this tank in awhile. Still one of my favorites. Well done. How are all the Royals doing?

Cheers, I should try do a more thorough update some time...

Everything is still ticking over nicely, the Laguna pump hasn't missed a beat, the Current lights too, and I'm still loving the "little fish big tank" stocking. I've got another 28 lemon tetras (all the LFS had) in quarantine, and I just added a 1.5"L190 too. The only thing I'd want to change is the fact that it's not in my living room.

Bringing this back from the dead as things are happening again!!

Dropped off six of my gold nuggets at the LFS this morning and came home with 30 5-7cm clown loaches, along with a pair of threadfins (A. heckelii) and three tiny little Uaru. They're all in quarantine at the moment with a precautionary dose of meth blue so no in tank pics, but here's a teaser.



The 1.5" royal mentioned in my last post is probably pushing 6" now, I've kept my 13" and one of the 10" L190s and sold the other two to make way for the clowns. I've still got 30-40 lemon tetras in the big tank but will probably replace them with something larger as they eventually die off.
