This sounds incredible. In terms of substrate i would not use ADA but rather Seachem Flourite over a layered base of preferably not too fine...
looks fantastic bud. well done.
Amazing how much their colour changes based on the environment. They change from almost completely brown under low light to the beautiful honey...
@JvH, its a nightmare that stuff. However i suspect that a combo of the aforementioned kit and more regular wc's will sort the issue. Maybe...
Nice looking setup. Would it not be beneficial to invest in a small canister filter in order to build up a decent stock of bacteria ? With...
what about a Polypterus ? bit different.... I have no experience with them but they look pretty cool, they may get a little big for a 2 ft but you...
Hey bud, firstly, your layout is super kiff. I think that some Bolbitis Heudelotti (african water fern) would look amazing on that wood. It...
Hey bud, it has been a while, glad to see you back. Thanks for the kind words, I genuinely appreciate it dude.. The tank is looking a little...
@gwshorten, yes mate, think you got the wrong end of the stick ;) im not selling my fish, i was just sharing a little info on the guys as i have...

Thanks @howard, much appreciated
@Broder, thanks bud, much appreciated. The elephant nose is actually surprisingly active, hes out and about foraging through the substrate and...
Brief photo update Not too much to report... had a massive clearout of my long grass as well as the majority if the floating plants. Managed to...
thanks bud, like i said to Reedfish, there is still a lot of learning to do and a lot of those pics were taken with my old camera. Needless to...
Thanks Mate, I appreciate that.. still a hell of a long way to go. Sadly a lot of those pics were taken with my old point-and-shoot, im replacing...
