As I mentioned in the title, we brought a new tank into our house this weekend. Picked up a 90 gallon setup from a nice couple who is moving. This is going to be my girlfriend's tank, she has been talking about getting a planted tank for ages now. Moved it in on Saturday, added the gravel and dirt, and are waiting for the water to clear up before we add the plants in. Not much to look at yet but pics to come when it's fully setup.
Right now there is just a bunch of small fish in it, mostly cardinal tetras but also a handful of harlequin rasboras and a couple of danios. I'm not a big fan of freshwater fish, possibly because they don't seem very exotic to me... I grew up spending a lot of time up in the Miller Lake area fishing the small lakes. But there is one pink danio in there that looks very cool. Eventually she wants to add discus which seem like they could be a neat fish. We have very different ideas about what consitute "pretty fish" though lol. It should be interesting to see how the tank progresses and what she does with it. Where it was setup previously, it kind of resembled this:
I wish I had taken a picture. I mean it wasn't anything too impressive but it would just have been neat to take a before pic, as it was, an after pic once fully moved, and then a progression pic a few months from now. Oh well. Will have to settle for the progression series of pictures!
Beth says that we are now in a "tank off" lol.
