Stocked my 36g BF finally

**fishn00b** · 02-05-2013, 12:52 AM

Been a lot of questions over the past 3 weeks or so HUGE thanks to all who have helped me out

. I finally stocked this weekend. current stock list is:

3x Skirt Tetras (they are huge)
3x Rummynose
11 x Neons
3x panda garras
1x GBR

I plan on increasing the rummies when my LFS gets some in stock. neons look awesome and pandas are keeping algae in check for now. here are some pics. Couldn't find a bistlenose anywhere yet either, might still add if it wouldnt be overstocked when I can find one.

Way cool. What kind of plants do you have? Is that watersprite in the corner? I love the way it's like a bush above that decoration. Like a tree.

Your tank realy looks good. Only thing I would do different is up your blackskirts and Rummy's. But that is your choice.

It's a type of watersprite I forget which, I am so bad at remembering plant names but thank you...it grows like a weed. The one to the left is a rotala indica. And the "decoration" is malaysian drift wood, I try to go 100% natural in my tanks whenever possible :D

Rummy's will be increased as soon as my LFS has some in stock. The 3x skirts have been happy in my 10g for a while now so I may leave them be.

I like this a lot. The skirts/minors in general can be nippy when kept in smaller schools so I have to agree to increase but it could just again be I have bad luck with them? I am anxious to see how that carpet does.

really pretty tank. nice job and what a cute little ram. he'll do fine alone. I have one each in my 30 and my 90 because the little brats can't cohabit without trying to kill each other :o( They sure do add a nice pop of color and flare to a tank, don't they?

Yes the Ram adds a wonderful pop of color, although I wish he would stop pecking at my baby tears! lol also, there is this weird brown stuff everywhere. It was there before I added fish but has gotten progressively worse, it looks like cotton balls of light brown and spread mostly on the plants in the tank. I dont know if this is some weird type of algae, or snail eggs from my massive snail infestation (all of which have mysteriously dissapeared but I plan on starting a different thread about that) Here is a picture of the weird stuff
