Have an awesome tank? Maybe an awesome fish? I would love to see them! A few years ago there were so many amazing tank pictures on fishlore. I’ve been searching different threads and found some beauties. Let’s see what you’re hiding. Below is my miracle pleco.

Hey,

new project of me.

Nature-like tank for Aspidoras C125. All plants are from south america, currently on the hunt for rare shrimp from there. Very hard to get. Backwall is planted with moss. Some rare Echinodorus (Echinodorus × opacus 'Rataj'), too.

quick update on the tank!

My 29 Gallon black water tank housing cardinal tetras and white corys and my in door fish pond that is in my sun room has two comet gold fish. We built this pond. 45 gallon in a cabinet and the Aquarium cabinet and canape was a regular wood color we refinished in a black stain and I added appliques to it. And even though this is a thread topic for aquariums I'm sharing my bird cage that is also in my sunroom that my husband built for my pigeon Peekie Pie that I rescued when he was a baby. He is now 8 years old.
And this is my 20 gallon Betta tank before all the plants gave up the ghost and died and now I'm having to try my hand again at fresh water plants.

And another project, which I've put a lot of time into.
Only a few weeks old as of now.

Pfft! You call what I hope to achieve a mess. Lol

It's been a while, here's the 125 and 29

And yes, there are fish in that mess, they're just hard to see from that far away lol.

Day 50 of my latest planted tank. Growing slowly but steady

 

[SparkyJones]

Well diatoms are back again. It was a pretty decent 6 months of clear though. Maybe one day I get rid of them for good. Until then, it is what it is! I gave up fighting it.

Emperor Tetra and red devil koi angel

My tiniest of tanks.



Red Cherry shrimp 2 gallon cube with ramshorns.
Dwarf chain swords, ludwigia growing out the top and across the glass lid, a windelov java fern in the background and duckweed floaters.

They will delete any non-picture posts in this thread usually pretty quickly but I see I can't direct message you. I updated that post with plant info.

Have you tried a uv sterilizer? That's a lot of bacteria going on.


Snow white bristlenose group.

No uv sterilizer, it's not a bacterial bloom though it's diatoms for sure. It's been coming and going for 2 years now because I'm stubborn and want to keep 10 angelfish in a 72g and have low KH. The nitrate production than never stays low for long keeps feeding the bloom. The bloom reduces the nitrates, but that nitrogen cycle activity eats up the KH and the pH drops.
I know why it happens, too many fish, But i dont want to change 50 gallons a day just to keep it clear.

It's not harmful to the fish, they all look great and eat great, just the water isn't "pretty" and in a week there's a brown coat on everything.

Then a few weeks back I think my male killed my female in my breeding tank, I repaired him with a female that's unrelated to him, and they've spawned. The darker one is the female. She's bigger than my last female that I think he killed and she's beating him up now, she tore up his tail as they prepared to spawn. Today is cleaning day so don't judge! hahaha

This is a 30g Light & Dark tank I set up this year. Basically has a LED light on half of the tank only

Hydrophila corymbosa with cherry shrimps

The contrast messes with my phone's camera though, hard to get a full tank pic

100g planted community tank

 

[DwarfGouramiGoblin]

These are my favorites that I have right now

They're all botanical style, but not true blackwater as they have a Ph of 7.4.
