    Really nice Julian, and those fish look huge! What are the swords planted in? Is that the pantyhose pot?

    Thanks, Barb. The plants are one in a porcelain cichlid faux rock, and the other one is DIY made of burlap bag with aquarium safe "liquid plastic". I kind like a boulder look approach for the plants, If you ever design one of your plant dishes looking like boulders sort of round and concealing the substrate some how . I will be all over.
    plecos, tends to mess with the amazonian substrate and create a mess.

    Yes Phil. I kind of regret it after I bought . SeaClear acrylic round corners 48" long, 24" deep and 30" high discus love it. my arm pits don't. The fish are all 2015 mix of John's Snook21, and Mark ,Discus Origins and of course the pair of Stendker from Hans just visiting for the summer, lol.
