Need aquascaping ideas for archerfish

[blackwater]

I'm soon getting a 100 gallon tank and I'm thinking about making it a paludarium. The stocking will be 5 clouded archers. I need some plant to set the food on so that the archers can shoot them. Any help is appreciated.

You can do like a pothos or some vine plant and use crickets for food and put them on it. I have also seen people using Serra onip tabs too.

Another question. Since the water level is going to be lowered, how do you filter the water?

 

[Zach72202]

You can use a canister filter and have the intake and output at/below the waterline.

Also, if you don't have the tank already, I would recommend a 150g. I am assuming the 100g you are talking about is 72*18*18, which would be hard to do a paludarium with enough water depth and also scape.

If you got a taller 150g 72*18*28, or even a 125g, that would give you a lot more room to do all the scape you are want.

You could also drill holes (make sure the glass is not tempered), and use bulkheads, this would remain very hidden. Also, it would be awesome if you made a build thread for this tank.
