freshwater fish - pterophyllum scalare - half black angelfish stocking in 20 gallons tank - This is my bigger angel... Phone pic so not that great. This was him at 1.25 inches! He was sooo cute!

More Info

State: Colorado
Country: United States
Description: Its a 20 High tank, average Dimensions. A RENA Powerfilter 80gal/hr. 18 inch bubble bar. Submersable Heater ( Constant 78 degrees).
Advice: I can use advice better then I can give it, but that doesn't stop me from trying!
Fish Kept: 2 Angelfish, 6 Neon and 1 Glowlight tetra ( I know it sounds cruel, but its all that survived my initial learning and they school together well), 1 freshwater crab, 2 algea eaters...
Corals/Plants: 1 Water lily, 1 amazon sword, 1 stemmed plant of unknown nomenclature!
Tank Size: 20 gallons
About Yourself: I have been doing this for about 5 months now and I am getting better! I absolutely despise the pics I have here and they will be updated! The 20 high is less of an abomination than it was, and the 55 will be even better yet!

COMMENTS

water movement is good...you need to either put on a backdrop or place the tank in front of something interesting...I know you have kids, but I frown upon neon everything...but it is your first tank, so it's cool...if I see it in ratings, I'll it a 7. fish avatar Edward
