Thanks Angel, yeah...those 2 always fight. They are the leaders of the tank and fight constantly. I don't think they are male and female but if they are, it would be GREAT! Those 2 are the heckel crosses.


Thanks Johnny,

Just a few Anubias and some elephant ears rooting into the tank. I got the idea from Dizkuz.

Thanks Hendri, I wish I could find the source to get more. They are nice, especially the one with alot of turq striations. He or she is my favorite. Their eyes are still jacked from the Trichlorfon so they are not red or orange at the moment. A few days and they will be back to their regular selves.

Take care Hendri,

I really love that heckel cross. I would like to have some like that. Great color. The bar with the turq striations is a cool look. Your fish look healthy and man you always have the cleanest tanks.-- like you just set them up.

Thanks everyone, appreciate the nice comments.

The roots are from a plant that Dizcuz told me about called monstera deliciosa. Pretty much one of these rooting into the tank. I also have another dwarf elephant ear rooting into the tank.

Thanks for the comments Danne and thanks for the plant idea! I really liked the look of it on your tanks and these plants are like $3 at the corner store here in Japan. I will definitely keep up with updates on them.

Thanks again,

Eddie,

How about a shot of the tank showing the plants rooting down into the tank. I'd like to see how you have it set up and how the plants are supported.

Eddie

Hey Kirk,

I'll try to get a shot later today. Basically I have the plant stalks inside a heater suction cup ring and just have it stuck against the wall up towards the rim of the tanks. The plants stand upright and and the roots root down into the tank. ;)
