Hardscape

Unread post by pinaki_pal »

Starting of another venture ...... These days hardly getting some time to spend for hobby....hence opted for hardscape only tank with a few Hygrophila difformis & Hygrophila polysperma ....

Let me know what kind of fishes will do well in this set up...looking forward to ur suggestions ....Tank placement is v poor....temp is reaching 32 , hence do keep that fact while suggesting for fishes

As of now opted for Black neons

Black neons are good choice.

Any dead fish can flow down the river but it takes a live one to swim back up stream.

Height of the tank is 12 inch......I tried it earlier and didn't find it quite good looking at fore ground (PFB picture) ...... n without CO2 +high light no plants actually forms true carpet... hence opting for blank foreground
