L204's home... Finally!

Post by fishthoughts »

Got a nice shot of the new home for the L204 group that I have. Its a 40 long, with 1/2" pvc siliconed to the bottom, in a series of runs with 2 filter intakes on the left side (not in picutre) and two 1200 gph powerheads that create a pretty good current for them. The filtration works great! I hid the powerheads behind a large rock type structure I built, and scattered the leftover rocks around the tank by the wood and jsut got the plants in today, so that finished the tank off!!! Im rather excited, and love the way it looks.

I am planning on breeding these, but, if I cant breed them, then its a hell of a nice display tank :lol:

Enjoy!
