I managed to hide the filter more. Nice to see it out of view now.

Just the submerged scape.

I'm thinking this week I'm going to maybe take a look at the local stores and see if anything looks good to bring home. Maybe I'll find something I like, since no good with the fish order, and online no longer has the tetras I liked in stock.

Going to the store later this week, I'll see if there's more rams in or maybe more lemon tetras and call it a day with stock with that.

I think both more lemons & maybe a male for your Bolivian girl would be good. Cichlid breeding behavior is fun to watch even if you don't want to think of raising fry.

I'm loving the scape!

Bolivians are not often available here and no one breeds them, so if they bred id have the whole market to myself.

The ones I saw in the other week were very young, I couldn't tell any apart at all. So would likely be a gamble over which sex I wound up with.

But more lemon tetras would be good, but worst scenario I can always breed the ones I have to keep more if I can't find any in store. That said, I worry with in store ones actually having more colour than the ones I have... mine are very bland colour and getting very colourful ones would stand out weird

Great project and very well planned, I really liked the rain effect but I also loved your tattoos on your hands, can you give a photo of that?? maybe I'll copy some, lol. Very nice tank, if you want inspiration look for the Crazydas riparium on the web, it's impressive.
