It's been awhile since I have posted, but life has been really busy. My 125g community tank is really comming along. The Floramaz from petsmart/petco I have gotten on sale has really worked wonders combined with my lighting. The light just makes my videos look abit bright though and Jr's color show up kind of faded. He is so colorful in pearson. The large sword in the middle is the small one that was on the far left in my last video. Got a good peice of real drift wood and more plants. Lost acouple mollies, but its because the 3 males were always fighting. Guess there wasn't enough females to share, lol. The Betta is also thriving, though I think he is snacking on the baby mollies at night because he is always trying to get them. No aggresion towards the community fish or plants, just abit of Jr. showing little brother who is boss. I am going to have to get Pepper into the temporary 55g, but trying to finish selling the last of my last batch of Midas. I should probly sell him, but once the kids named him he has grown on me. He might go into a 75g at work after my Tax return. They have both put on some serious size, so Pepper won't be abled to dodge Jr for much longer. Anyway, here they are. Enjoy.

Great job! I love the tank. Jr and Pepper are looking good. I like the Mollies I use them, they are great algea eaters too. Very nice Scott.

Thanks man, I am thinking of getting Platties next. The male mollies were the most agressive things in the tank. The white male is the lone survivor of that showdown.

It's cool that you can keep Jr. with both tankmates and plants. They all look very healthy. Great job!

Yeah, he is getting really fat at 11".

gorgeous setup. and that's awesome that Jr leaves the plants alone :)

Yeah, he loves to swim through them, the conditioning really worked. Doesn't seem like it's too popular though. Guess many aren't excited about a layed back Midas that tolerates community tank mates and plants. Oh well:grinno:
 
Thats awesome! Hope your midas doesnt up root your plants like mine!
