My 180liter!

06-05-2012, 05:38 AM

Recently i re-scaped my 180l tank into something close to what i've always wanted, an amazon biotope. ( this is not an biotope sadly )

Do give me your inputs as to how i can improve the tank!
I am thinking to get a school of Serpae Tetras for this tank! what do you guys think!

Thanks in advance!

simple and neat. Bet your tetras are loving the 'nature feel'

Consider black phantom tetras as well. When grown and in adulthood, they look awesome when they begin flaring at each other. Mini can't-grow-big versions of the Emperor Blue Hook.

Personally i'd fill the tank with Exodon Paradoxus aka Bucktooth Tetras. It'd be real awesome to see them in a feeding frenzy. But i suppose you're going for the more soothing feel aye?

yikes :/ I suppose they have the same feeding frenzy as serpae does?
not really soothing feel, just something more natural

cause i have a planted tank already.

Oh no, Bucktooths are not your average Tetra. They're like mini Piranhas and they'll tear stuff apart man!
