kitstyles Posted November 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 I have a double T5 14watt light over 2 of this size tank, I think they are doing fine. This tank is for my pair of channoides.. hopefully they will arrive soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettc777 Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 I reckon two medium size rocks would go nicely in there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bettarazzi Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 Well, the anubias is flowering so I guess they're pretty happy with that lighting. [Edit: I was going to say it needed more plants but Kitz beat me to it himself :alright:] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettc777 Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 I agree, I also think you need the right rocks... its funny that you would think you could just chuck in any rocks but you really do need to get ones that work well with the layout and colour. Did you have any more substrate left? if you do i would consider sloping the gravel downwards from the back of the tank coming lower in the foreground. gives it some depth.

Bettarazzi Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 I think more plants for the fry to hide in might be better. Do channoides need some kind of cave? I reckon a half coconut shell covered with java moss would look nice and serve as a cave, if that's what they like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuzzy_dragonfly Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 Nice tank , May I suggest a small grassy plant for the left corner and I nice background for it too! Just so you know I actually mix synthetic and real plants in my planted tank, mainly because the silver dollars eat everything in sight but also so that if one plant dies the tank doesn't look so empty .
