Cool set up bro, personally l wouldnt change a thing.What size tank iz it?
Thanx bro.It's only a 125 and obviously horribly overstocked. I lack in so many ways as a hobbyist, but try my best to overcome my short comings. For instance the tank gets a 25-50% water change every other day. My attempt to offset the over stocking and my ummm fish gluttony!?!lol! I think they're all happy I've never had a jumper or had to remove a fish due to aggression. I also haven't had to fight any disease in god knows how long(knock on wood!! On both instances) Though I have lost fish to predation on a few occasions. Mostly cause I'm a bone head and pretty much knew it would happen tried anyway and within usually a night the fish would become a victim of my vanity/stupidity.

wow beautiful tank bro.. are those plants r plastic?
Thank you, and yeah they're plastic. They looked good to me though and cost about $6 for each vine grouping. They are attached with suction cups to the rear wall of my tank.

Nice tank! Great camera skills. Pics look great!
Thanx man for both compliments. I can't stand my pics though, the noise in them really fustrates me. I should really read the stickies on taking photo's, but I'm too pig-headed I want to learn it on my own. Hopefully I'll figure out the noise problem soon.

looking at the first pic, I thought the plants were real. well done, and the fish are awesome.
Thanx! I wanted a reasonably yet attractive natural look. Still trying too figure it out though. The tank still doesn't feel right.

awesome tank, the green terror looks great, not to massive of a dome, awesome tank!
Thanx alot I got him from a LFS and he was horribly emaciated when I got him. His gut was sucked in and he refused to eat for weeks, I was worried I'd lose him. Never saw him poop during that time either I thought for sure he was a goner. Now he's the King of the tank and my most aggressive eater. He even leaves my Lyonsi whose 12 inches at stand still. Neither will give way, but luckily it's all show and no go. They did manage to bite off each others streamers though, that pissed me off. Though he's not as long as my Lyonsi from top to bottom he's thicker than the Lyonsi, barely but still impressive. He's so fat he almost looks like a short-body. lol!

tank looks great as ever kolt, photography seems to be getting better too!
i would go for some rays or polys
Thanx Xander. Man you know how I feel about your set-up and photo skillz so I take it that as a real compliment. I was thinking ray's too. Specifically a Leo, I've lusted after one for so long but couldn't bring myself to dropping that much cash on one fish. The urge though has been growing more intense everyday. I don't think I'll be able to hold out much longer, so you may see a pup in there soon. Though that's gonna suck cause I definetly gotta get money together for an upgrade on the tank then for sure and not just cutting down the stock in there.
Oh well, maybe I'll be able to hang with the big boy's then. lol!
