Got this for my wife. Paid $100 off CL. I got the Rena XP3 filter, two 250 watt heaters, 200LBs of holey rock and some fish that came with it...so not a bad deal at all. I gave the fish away to members on here for free....gave the Holey rock to David for free and sold the filter for 1/3 of the price. Love my fishbox members.

Anyways. This tank is going to be community. I will have some plecos, tetras catfish and discus. Anyone have any ideas for let me know! So far we have 25 Lemon tetras, 2 Petracolas, and some longfin ABN.

thats gonna be a mean @$$ Comun tank!!!!!!!!!
cant wait to see it finished!

Putting water in tonight and then will add the fish in a few days.

live plants?

Thats a nice tank!I know it will look great when you get done with it.

planted would be nice with some mazanita and stones.

I was thinking about that. What plants are good with normal lighting?

with normal lighting.
a buddy of mine is growing some crypt wendtii e. tellunus, sunset hygro with just a t-8 over his 75 gal. and with some root tabs.

oh and anubias and java fern also is a low light plant.

hmm If Anubias is good then I might just get some at the HCCC auction. GAS always has some good Anubias. How much for the Java Fern?

if you kill anubias, you shouldn't ever keep plants lol, that is one hardy plant. I picked up pretty all of it at your auction.
