as you can see iv removed most of the rocks to allow for better water circulation. have also secured java ferns onto the driftwood using elastic bands indefinately (no idea when they will attach themselves) also put moss in however this is slowly dying, or coming off the wood, or being eaten, but not too worried about that. The water has cleared well; no more tannins leaching or sand stirred up. Also added black sand from another tank and mixed it in with the yelow sand, quite pleased with the result.
as for the stock, i have removed the clown loaches, algae eater, one JD, the texas and one GT. So now the stock list is as follows;
1x 7-8" Silver aro
1x 3" Jewel
1x 3" Red Dragon Flowerhorn
1x 2" GT
1x 2.5" JD
2x 2" Jags (although i will shortyly be removing the runt)
what u think better?
