My 72 Gallon Bowfront Tank- South American/Community |
| Quote: |
"Whose leg do I have to hump to get a dry martini around here?"
— Brian Griffin from The Family Guy
|
| About Yourself: |
Brand new in the hobby, but have several friends who know the hobby, and have helped me out. Thanks for looking! |
| Advice: |
Research!!!
My tank is relatively young, and I learned from my mistakes. Until my tank was properly cycled, I did unfortunately lose a couple platys and tetras. Now, I am correctly cycled, and everyone inside is happy. |
| Fish Kept: |
3 Bolivian Rams
3 Apistogramma Cacatuoides
5 Asstd Platys
5 Otocinclus
4 Peppered Corys
1 Cardinal Tetra
2 Bamboo shrimp
15 Ghost shrimp
Believe it or not, everyone gets along 110%. I thought I would lose a few ghost shrimp, but they have not been touched.
I'm at maximum capacity, so I do 25% water changes/vacuuming every 1.5 weeks.
Feed: Flake and NLS Cichlid Formula, and freeze-dried brine shrimp every few days.
|
| Plants Kept: |
All plastic and silk. A combination of Sea Garden, Tetra Water Wonders, and Penn Plax plants.
I use Malaysian driftwood, which really accentuates the tank. |
| Tank Size: |
72 |
| Description: |
I first would like to thank the RMFT community for giving me ideas with starting this beautiful hobby. My tank decor was influenced by many of you here, so I always give credit where it's due.
My Tank:
72 Gal Bowfront
Eheim 2217 Canister Filter
Two Rio Powerheads (Rio 600 & 400)
200w Heater
Air pump w/ 3 stones
Marina brand Background
My water stays crystal clear and chemically balanced. My driftwood does lower the pH, so I have to pH Up on with water changes. I really don't like using chemicals more than I have to.
