and clown loach LOL.

i removed my fake plants and mopani wood from the tank and added my bamboo.
my tank had a little problem and i lost 2 fish, one of the clown loaches the little one died behind some wood and i did not see it for 2 days, another loach followed and my little tiger and other loach were in a bad way and were removed and added to the main tank.
heres some pics, i just need to add some real plants and restock a little.
the NTT is covered with sand as i moved some to add the bamboo and covered him, you can also see the ammonia burn on his eyes and this is how i new something was wrong, hes pulling through and even eating again.
soon i will be adding some snakeheads but will leave it for a little while until the current fish recover and the tank is stable.
sorry for the crappy pics they were rushed.

yep im already prepared for that, i have carbon carbon and even more carbon.
if i end up really liking this idea i will clear out the insides of some more bamboo and dip it in sealer so its covered inside and out and put some more in.
