Well I moved the discus babies out of the 40 and into a 50 a little while ago. So this 40 is just sitting around.
. I had added this nice rock like background because the back is painted black. Black just takes away too much from a tank. I’ve been keeping hillstream loaches for a long time in a 36g bowfront. It’s more high than long and from my reading hillstreams do like rocks and caves more than wood and plants. So the 40 does look like the better place.
Now I’m near the bay and ocean rocks are very easy to find. So I pick up a bunch and start the tank.
. The piece of wood I got for free from another hobbiest 
. I’ve got 4 hillstreams now but I don’t want to move them first. So I add about 200 red cherry shrimp from a long established 15g and all the plants.
. So with the shrimp in I’ve got to get shrimp safe fish. So nano fish seem like what I’m looking for. Plus I see brass tetras and buy 9. All the guy had.
. These guys look like tiny tuna. Bought these guys in February and have yet to see them again. Been to about 6 different shops. Seems nano fish aren’t to popular.
