A+ looks great and will get even better as the plants grow out.

Did you use eco-complete for the dirt?

Nice to have friends that work in pet shops!

Looks nice! Are you worried about stirring up the dirt when adding plants? I tried a dirted tank once, but it didn't work out well for me because I like to rearrange my tank too often haha

You have a stocking issue, if you'd like to discuss it

Not really scared to stirring up things but I will not be moving them I want to get hair grass but that is down the road and I know that the temperature difference in the fish but they are local breed and are keep in the same temperature as my tank

 

[TexasDomer]

That doesn't really matter though, they should still be kept within their natural temp range. They've evolved to be adapted to a particular temp range. A few generations (or even dozens) removed from the wild likely wouldn't change that adaptation that quickly.

Like I said ty for the info but I know what u are saying but the store and breeder keep them same temperature as my tank is set at.ty sir

 

[TexasDomer]

Okay, just be aware that your fish will live shorter lives and be more susceptible to diseases if kept at improper temps, regardless of what the store and breeder tell you/what their temps are at.

Best of luck!
