It's dedicated to spiny eels. There's two corydoras in there, they're what I used to cycle the tank a few years ago. Currently there are 7 spiny eels inside. I use black diamond sand as a substrate. Sand is the only acceptable substrate for fish who like to burrow IMO.
The 3 types of plants used are naja grass as the surface cover (to encourage the eels to stay in the tank), hornwort anchored in the substrate with lead weights and some anubias attached to driftwood. Numerous caves are offered by stacking slate on top of rocks.
Im open to ideas for more low light plants. Since eels love floating plants and do not hide as much when in tanks full of floaters, everything below has to be low light.
2 zig zag 8 " on both
1 borneo python 12"
1 black spotted 5 "
1 regular peacock 4 "
1 striped peacock 6 "
1 yellow tail 4 "
I'm workin on putting together a 220 in my basement I recenty finished. I'll be transferring my python and black spotted once he is of size. I also plan to put a fire eel inside it. I doubt I'm going to mess with the tire track eel, I hear they are very aggressive.
