04_si tanks
10 gallon breeder with my pair of rams. has a Java Fern, some sand, and the decoration theyve only ever spawned on.
35 gallon community. Has 1 angelfish, 2 Clown Loaches, 6 Kuhli Loaches, 10 Cardinals, and I added 4 Otos yesterday. has 4 Amazon Swords, and 3 large bunches of Pygmy Chain Swords that ive started spreading a bit hoping to get some runners. The plants are sure good at growing brown diatoms, i scrubbed them off yesterday. I cant wait till this stuff clears up..
PS - any tips for making my pictures look nicer?
I attached a picture of what my first tank looked like, when i first set it up. it was a 20 gallon with 5 Serpae Tetra and a clown pleco. thats how it looked the day i brought those fish home without having a clue...

I love my Serpae Tetras, they are so brightly colored. They have a reputation for being aggressive but mine really aren't. How about yours?
Nice rams

The tanks really look good, I always like to see how they progress.
I love how the cardinals look. I'd love to have rams, they're gorgeous fish.
Slug has a thread with some tips on photography, I hope you'll find it helpful.

im jealous. i had 5, 1 was a sick little thing that hid all day, never ate for about a month, and then disappeared (my cat maybe?) so there were really only 4. that could have been the problem with them nipping

I have three serpae in a 55g catch all tank that has 6 blackskirt tetras, 2 angels, 2 danio kerri, 2 von Rio tetras, 4 fishing minnows I thought were pretty  This is the tank where everybody goes until I figure out where i want them.
Oh and one tiger barb from the tank at work that need to be taught not to be aggressive. so far so good 
Sorry for the hijack- today my mouth(typing) runneth over

Oh VERY nice!!! I love that angel and your Clown Loach is gorgeous. I'm really drooling over that piece of wood. your pics are much improved.
Now i know you're going to reach through the computer and smack me but.... as I scanned down the pics before opening them , i thought what is a roll of bathroom tissue doing in that tank   Then I opened it and its an upside down pot  I think I need a nap!
