thanks jball!

I like your tank layout too and plenty of room for the discus to swim. Is that a wild green? (nevermind, saw the picture caption).

very nice and pretty fish - question - why is your heater vertical? If the mfg. requires that, please get rid of it and get one (two would be better) that mount horz. Better heat control and far better performance since a large column of water will be heating at any given time.

Very Nice set-up

thanks everyone for the comments. yea its a wild green. i recieved both from snookn21. foxfire i do have two heaters. the eheim jager is on the other side of the tank behind the large sword plant, the other heater is a marineland visi therm. i want to convert the tank to a all wild tank...i have alot of thinking with the domestics(should i get rid of them or not, tank would still be the same)

[morillonj]

your right second hand pat i might just use that as my avatar! thanks! :)

[Second Hand Pat]

Cool, are you ok with downsizing it?

[morillonj]

what do you mean downsizing?

[Second Hand Pat]

For an avatar. I like it, look really good.

[morillonj]

thanks. i got a question for you second hand pat, im thinking about selling off my 3 virgin reds for some of johns wilds. good move or not?

[Second Hand Pat]

Sort of depends on your goals. Your tank would make a beautiful wilds tank and I personally prefer to not mix wilds and domestics unless the domestics have a wild look.

[morillonj]
