Getting my 55gl anyday, yippy!
Moderator: LoachForumModerators
Here, finally is the pic I promised. Sorry it took so long, between mother-in-law and a friend going to the hospital and poor Rast having to go to the vet and getting more then half his tail amputated it has been rather hectic here and I forgot. Since I got the camera out to take pics of the pleco fry, check FW if you to see them, I took a quick pic of the new loachy tank, it didn't come out very well but gives general idea. The tank is not totally finished, I still want to add a couple more hygros to the back but have to wait for the ones in my other tank to grow out some more to take some cuttings. Also thinking about picking up some of the smaller crypts to put in front of the driftwood. I did end up taking out all the sand and getting CaribSea's All Naturals Peace River to put in there instead.
I still need to pic up the other striplight for the tank. Once I get that and some more plants I'll take some more pics for ya.

Keith, just gey a few big clumps of java-fern, my loaches seem ok with it and when they do go on the rampage, the fern is quick to replenish it's leaves, until the next time.
don't get Anubias all i have left are two stalks about 8 inches long they totally destroyed the leaves within a day and any new leaves they just keep cropping them.

Thanks everyone.
The anubias and java fern have been with the loaches for more then a year. When I set this tank up I moved those plants over with the fish also. The loaches have never bothered the anubias. I started with 2 small cuttings from another tank and the loaches have never touched them so they have had a chance to get large. I've never tried hygro with them before so we'll see how they do with it, so far so good. Also no problems with the crypts either.
