    Default 170G Planted Community Tank

    I'm currently doing 50% water changes every other day and have what looks like discus starting to pair off, the tank still isn't where I want it to be but it's getting pretty close just want some more crinums on the left side.

    The filter intake on the right side of the tank is currently being cleaned by 2 discus, and the standing wood on the left side is being cleaned by 2 other discus and lots of shimmying and dancing going on at the moment so hopefully will be seeing eggs soon, then eventually move out to the breeding tank if all goes well.

    I apologise for the poor picture quality looks much better on my phone

    There are currently:
    9 Discus
    8 Corys
    50 Tetras (give or take)
    12 Rainbowfish
    2 Plecos
