Hi there,
wonderful looking tank. Love the amazon. The only thing I would change was to lighten the tannins slightly and add some swords for contrast but beautiful never the less.

duzzy - Thank you for your comment! The water is almost clear, I believe the light makes it look darker. Im going to get a coralife light fixture next month so hopefully I can take better pictures. As for plants Im going to get Echinodorus tenellus and Echinodorus Angustifolius. I found a picture and posted it a few pages back and i think these plants best simulate the environment.
fishman9809 - I dont know if they are wild or not, but im leaning toward yes. When he first got them he had about 400 of them (im assuming) he told me they are really rare and this is the first time he got them. He said that most of them died during shipping so thats why I think they are from the wild. I got them from this pet store in LA. They also have about 20 Galaxy danios for 5 bucks a piece. I always wanted them but when i saw them upclose they didnt live up to their hype IMHO.
bratyboy2 - lol thanks again for all your comments =P
