I love my monster tank but......nothing beats the ease of doing a water change on a 20gal after you have been doing water changes on a 180gal. hahahah Everyone has seen all the tiny fish before. Do something different. When i get my hands on a hex tank im going to do Halloween crabs. I had one that lived for 5 years. I figure do half water and a rock pile in the middle of the tank that comes out of the water. It would look so cool to throw 3 or 4 crabs in with feeder gold fish. If you dont do it ill post a thread soon. go check out Halloween crabs. They have really nice colors and grow about the size of your fist. People will be blown away.
 
Use lava rock, or other similar rock, to create a central spire which breaks the surface of the water. Use a white sand substrate. Use java fern attached to the rock. Add a school of cory cats. Add a school of yo yo loaches. Add a school of lemon tetras and a school of red eye tetras. At the surface, use some hens and chicks succulent plant on the rocks. Hen and chicks (also known as Hen-and-chickens) is a common name for a group of small succulents belonging to the flowering plant family Crassulaceae, native to Europe and northern Africa. So it becomes a freshwater reef that explores the area bove the water. Use a stainless steel stand and a stainless steel overhanging lamp fixture with LED lighting. Take pictures and post them here for all to enjoy! :)
 
Breed paradise fish. At least once in your life, you need to raise a cloud of these. It's priceless.


Not my fish,
