50G Tanganyika Planted Riparium
I haven't been back to planetcatfish in a long time!!
This new journal thread is a continuation of one that I maintained here a couple of years ago. Here's the link...

I have cycled a few different kinds of fish through this planted setup, but it has always housed the group of seven Synodontis lucipinnis that are still there.
I am redoing the planting and the fish stocking once again. I will keep the group of Synodontis in there, but this time I want to combine them with one or more Tanganyika cichlids to make something more like a biotope representation. The addition of plants growing above the water is unusual for a Tanganyika aquarium display, but I intend for the setup to be more or less representative of a rocky near-shore environment where plants might not be so far away.
