Love the tank it looks really good. Do you every have trouble with jumpers?

yes and no ... I would not have any problems with jumpers but I just recently found out that my BLACK GHOST KNIFE fish was the troublemaker for my Siamese Algae Eaters to jump, and one time only when the tank was new my Acara jumped out - lucky that my dad was in the room and saw that little bastard on the floor lol he threw him back and 10 min after he was chasing other fish ! quite incredible =) It's better now, no jumpers, everything settled down, I feed my ghost better so he doesn't chase the SAEs ;) No more jumpers

( it's possible that adding floating plants helped a bit )

thanks for the compliments on the tank =)
 
yes, SAEs are notorious jumpers . . . I thought my old JD was eating them, and then one day found 3 dead SAEs behind the tank (!)

beautiful tank you've got . . . and I like that you went planted and peaceful; should be a very relaxing set-up . . .
 
Very nice setup... love the aquascaping... btw, is that dirt on the bottom with sand on top?
