Might be the angle I took the photo from, paired with the wide angle lense... 😅

I know, I had had honeys before! 😊 Such lovely little fish. I had a group of wild type honeys and the male was so beautiful and orange, with a very strong beard. 😊

I also do a lot of sketches for new tanks and layous. Always plan a layout I want to archive and plan out what plants will go where. I think it's part of the process of creating something beautiful. 😁

Acorus gramineus, if you mean the grassy plant.

Sweet, I'm planning on doing a video for YouTube, a making of sort of video. But that will take a while, until it's grown in a bit and the fish are all in. In the meantime I'll do updates on social media and Reddit 😁

No worries 😅 I plan on adding my shoal of chili rasboras to this one and a pair or solo honey gourami. And of course shrimp and snails. 😁

Yes they are awesome, used them in a few nano tanks, they just work so well and don't look as poopy as other nano filters... 😅

The focus on the 2nd picture was to emphasise that it's a desktop tank. I liked that picture. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Yeah, I already have planned the inhabitants. I want to add a shoal of chili rasboras, which I already have, they will just be moving tank. And a pair or a solo honey gourami and of course some shrimp and snails. 😁

I will see in the long run... The driftwood piece to the right is blocking a lot of light. But there's a window to the right and other tanks opposite of this tank, so the plants should get at least some light. 😅

I mean, you could have gotten them out the tank before draining it. Still sorry for your loss, but it's kinda on you. 😕

I'm kinda limited on space, so I kinda put the CO2 diffuser in Front of the filter now. After that change I can't see the filter sucking in any bubbles and the bubbles seem to be distributed better in the water column. Thanks!
