MY "EVERYTHING" 120

Post by ddavila06 »

its been running for about a year an a half, lost a bunch of fish to unexperience, had tons of anubias for a long wile and now i finally have it at a point i like, what do you think?

some of the critters include:

bushy nose, clown, loricariae? (wipped tail), marbled sailfin plecos; boesmani and madagascar rainbow fish; assorted corie cats (common, stripped?, skunk, etc); a red tail chelsea; clown, weather, and khuli loaches (no they do not uproot the plants);gold angelfish;african butterfly fish; golden wonder killie fish;pictus and bumble bee catfish; and more...

live plants: a whole bunch 8)

anubias barteri, anubias nana, some other anubia (skinnier lager leaves rather than round), java fern thick and slim leaves, ludwigias, banana plant, crypts, some large species of sword, mosses, penny worth, vals(thanks Eugen), grasses, who knows what else is in there!!!

maintenance, water change every 10 days; iron with every water change; flourite substrate? i think sometihng like that is what i got...lights on from 9 to 10-11-12~, doble bulb regular fixture with a flora glo bulb...nothing fancy:P

I wish I could be like Mr. Sarcastic when I grow up! ;)

I really liked your 120 tank when I picked up the anubias. Thought you were growing nice plants with your setup.
