MrsMuffin's 65 Gallon

I have finally taken some pics of my new tank. Current inhabitants are 8 cherry barbs, 3 green cories, 2 panda cories (I just lost one and went from 3 to 2...), and 4 angels that came home with me today. I plan on adding a BN pleco and either 4 rams or dwarf gouramis.

Here is the tank before I added any fish:

I love it! Where did you get the cave all the way on the right of the tank?

Thanks!

Lucy, the background is just some latex paint that we had left over sitting around in the garage.

Cog, that cave came from PetSmart.

Thanks Rifter, everything is going great!

I had planned on picking up the BN pleco today but the LFS I went to was out, so I decided to get the angels instead. I have really enjoyed watching them explore the tank this afternoon. I can already tell that they are going to be little piggys, they were pecking around the bottom at the sinking wafer I had put in for the cories as soon as they were in the tank!

Even the ham??

Just kidding. Lovely tank, handsome boy, and very pretty fishies! I had a Cory once when I was young and stupid. I divorced him when I got older and smarter. Yours are cuter.

Finally back to working on the tank again. I have been soooo busy with other stuff lately!

I purchased an additional piece of wood for the tank a few weeks ago, and I added 2 BN plecos that I got in the mail from Dino & CWC yesterday. They went right to exploring the tank. I had purposely left some algae in the tank over the last couple of weeks because I knew I would be getting them. They are so cute and seem so tiny! The angels are very interested in them, but there are plenty of hiding places for them...

I will try to post some new pics by this weekend. I am still planning on adding one more group of fish, but I haven't decided what that is going to be yet.
