55g Oscar tank pics

#1
Haven't posted on here in a year or so, been in Japan with my little brother back home taking care of the fish.

Full view. The branchy log thing is sort of his toy. He moves it all over the tank.


Close up. I think he's got really nice colors. He's about 2.5 years old. He mostly eats those big cichlid sticks, though I put some tiger barbs in there for him for thanksgiving. If he doesn't get them, then I have some nice dither fish for the skunk loach (who's like 3" and I almost NEVER see). There may be some brown kulhi loaches in there to hiding, haven't seen them in a few days.


Nother one of the Oscar looking at the camera.


The angel and the male blue Gourami. He (Gourami) is now 7 years old. He was my very first fish.


The girl blue is in the back there.


The less colorful krib. Other one has some really striking colors, he's probably hiding in the log thing the Oscar pushes around. Tiger barb pack lurking in the back.


I just added a Rena Filstar XP2 yesterday to help with mechanical filtration. I just keep foam and those bio brick things in the Aqua Clears so I thought it would help. Lot of tubes in the back of the tank now, though the canister wasn't as tough as I thought it would be. Glad I went with the Rena instead of the HOT magnum.
