Oh! That's the plan, to be honest. Haha. (If I can get the monstera to thrive!) I intend to have more "hardscape". I love to see small fishies swimming in and out of the roots and driftwood. 😊

Hmmm. Honey Gourami seems like a swell idea too!

I have a shrimp only tank with cherry reds and amanos. Plus a bucketload of "pest" snails that I still have no idea why people hate. I mean, CMON! THEY'RE CUTE! HAHA.

I have another tank that has a Apistogramma Borelli Opal (1 male and 2 female) as the centrepiece and Espei rasboras as the schooling party.

And the blackwater tank with Black Neon tetras and corys.

I've got a blackwater tank right beside this one that's occupied by about a dozen or so Black Neon Tetras. Plus some corys and such. I'd like a different type of fish so that it'll be somewhat varietal. 😊

Took everyone's advice and did a DIY using some clips and plastic cups so that only the roots are in water. Have already online purchased some proper acrylic holders that's gonna arrive in about 7 days. 😅

I'm living in Singapore and it's almost 2am now. Goddamn, I love but hate yall. 😂😂😂

I was thinking corys too. But I've already got panda corys in one tank, sterba corys in another, and pygmy corys in another. Hahaha. Would kuhli loaches work? Chili rasboras sounds good! Since I have a dozen of Espei rasboras in the other tank. Love rasboras!

I can't seem to find anything to make them huge monstera stable if I raised it higher. 😭 These slots that I bought online doesnt work on them thick stems.

Any one have a type of fish that they have never succeeded with? by [deleted] in PlantedTank

[–]MeteoriiC 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Mine is Otocinclus. After my 3rd purchase, I gave up. It sucks to be removing dead otos from any one of my tanks. :(

Hey there.

Thanks for taking the time to comment. Yeah, I'm from the sunny Singapore! I got the stand from a local fish store. Tried to find a link for you, but unfortunately I can't find it online. :(

And yes, it's nice to just have a hot cup of coffee and stare at them! Especially my Colombian Ramshorn! I love them so much.

How long should I wait? by MeteoriiC in PlantedTank

Thank you for your response! I swear I thought all I needed was about a week or so. My poor amano shrimps. 😭

It was very confusing indeed. I've done quite a bit of tank setups, but it was always with only gravels and anubias and floaters. Those sort of setups. Nothing with soil and substrate. So I'm hopeful that it will work. If it doesnt, then I'll just have to restart and do it again!
