    thanks for the nice comments, i was going to leave the front area open for swimming and feeding. The next step is fill it full with discus and tetras. I have to make a road trip to Melbourne and visit oakleigh fish.

    here is an update of what my tank looks like, Ive had the co2 on now for 3 weeks and are just starting to see the full effects of what co2 can do. Im only running 1.2wpg of light and my plants are pearling like crazy. i started to get a bit of algea so i have cut my ferts back to 15ml once a week. Discus are going in very soon, I cant wait. I added some sucking catfish and simasee fighter just to make sure that the tank has fully cycled. How does it look????

    u could, usually when u cut a plant it will grow 2 sprigs or more from the cut point, dont worry though they will soon bush up to the point u'll get sick of trimming :P

    Have you thought about putting in 1 or 2 red plants? Maybe a tiger lotus?

    Although all of the green against the black will set off the fish spectacularly!

    Speaking of fish, any closer to getting them? Have you decided which strains to get yet? Or which sorts of tetras? Will you be getting any catfish of any sort?
