Full tank shot as well as Sparky hanging out with the Palmas!

I saw the Senegal and moke eat today. The Senegal likes shrimp I guess. He had so many little pieces. He also got a big piece and spent 10 minutes running around the tank and trying to rip it.

Ah such a Bichir thing to do. Mine grabs the shrimp and refuses to share swimming around the tank while the other one chases him to get a bite. Then again mine dont really get along.

As much as bichirs aren't my cup of tea, the dimensions of your 341 liter wide must be very good for your purposes indeed.
I was prompted to comment here when I realized my possible future custom-built 682 liter is exactly equivalent as planned to 2 of your 341 liter lined up and merged, which also made me remember that your threads on this 341 liter wide were how I learned of 'wide' dimension tanks. Cheers.

Yeah, I did get quite lucky when I found this tank! Good luck on yours!

It’s hard to get the moke and Palmas to eat because they are still a bit skiddish. The plants will help. I have confirmation that everyone ate atleast 2 pieces of shrimp.

Interesting, my Polys never shy out from eating even after re-doing their entire tank lol. What size is your Moke ? Loving his colours...

Sens are super active. My moke sits in the corner all day, and only leaves when his beloved sponge filter gets pulled out. The moke is probably 9” or so. Hard to get pics with his true color because he never comes out of his little area, and when he does he hangs out by my filter contraption at the back of my tank.

Plants! I got 3 Vallisneria Spirallis, which I spread out around the back of the tank. I got 1 Java Fern and a couple Anubias. Also got some absolutely blinding green Rotala, which looks super out of place. Found some Lava Rock. It’s my first time planting, so I need some adjustments, but looks good so far.
