    @Die Skim .. pm sent..

    Anyhow, here are some update photos for now.. still need to find a lot of plants, this is still only what I had in my small tank, plus I removed the old Java fern, the Valis is growing at an astonishing rate.

    You could definitely add more Zebras, there's plenty of space for them in there, and they're not gonna get much bigger than what they are now :)

    I'll still stock up the tank some more, once I find a place that sells the zebra loaches for cheaper.. I'm not paying as much as I did again. I also didn't want to add too many fish in one go, let them and the tank settle and then gradually increase the amount fish I have in the tank. :)

    Cheers.

    And with awesome smooth sand like what you've got there it would be really cool to get a fish that digs itself into you substrate. Something like an eel or a type of digging loach.

    Not such a good idea if the tank is going to be a planted tank!!

    The tank looks great though! Really nice work!
