Yeah hes defintely an amazing manny. Why dont ya pick up another tank?

Ive decided to name my manny Wrex. He's getting treated with melafix and pimafix currently, tank temp at 78, daily 50% WC, and he's already eaten some tilapia. I think this is the beginning of a beautiful relationship. Just finished sucking out the old "black" sand, i'll be adding the flourite today. The plant selection for this tank is gunna be simple: dwarf sag carpet, jungle vals, and i'll probably be ordering some manzanita driftwood after the holidays. My 3X54w catalina light went back on top of the 90, my co2 system and filter was moved to the 90 as well.
 
Sounds like its going to be a really nice setup. I know mine seemed to be more comfortable the more I planted mine. Mine liked to hover in and around a bunch of crypt wendtii bushes I had, maybe try to get a bunch of plants similar to that for him to lounge around when he's chilling.

I just don't have the space/money for a crapload of tanks, just had to make a decision on what I wanted to have the most. I really want to grow out and keep a monster ATF, and I wanted to keep the super pissy elong, so that's just how it worked out for now.
 
I originally had plans to do my 90 in a dutch style, but getting this fish changed my plans. I want it to be heavily planted still, but more jungle like and long thin blade plants. Im sure I'll eventually have more val and dwarf sag than ill know what to do with. Both will grow like crazy in a high light, co2, and fert dosed tank.
