This is a beautiful tank with some fabulous fish that aren't often seen in a planted setup. One of the things that has always made me hesitate to keep large fish is that they're usually seen in rather bare aquariums. This is so much nicer. Thanks for sharing.

Very refreshing and beautiful. It most be really stunning in the flesh being that it's a 180g. So the sand sifters can't get to the AS? Can they move the rocks etc. I'll be watching this for long term results.

Yeah, photography can't really describe how it looks IRL. It's been running for close to 2 years, it's not a new setup. Aquasoil is new to it, and in the week that I have had it, I have come to realize my mistake. I did not have much left of the reg. size AS, so I used my bag of the fine stuff, and now I have black dust all over the nice white sand. Dont know who is moving it as the Geos are too big to get into the rocky area, must be the smaller ones and/or the catfish.

Hello
Interestingly this tank, much like the arrangement and the layout in general, however, these fish are well known in Brazil by the beauty, intelligence and mess ... You will have great difficulty in maintaining the layout when demarcation of territory and nests ...


Hugs
JACK
