WOW Marco,
that is a BEAUTIFUL tank...
Is there really only one type of plant in there?
...and all those loaches leave them alone, that is NICE.
I think it is interesting that the red tailed shark does so well with all the loaches. Do you get any agression out of that fish?
What is the large green fish...is it a Demsey ( I suck at cichilids!)
anyway, thanks for the shots! it is an inspiration!

wow, that's lots of food, no wonder your clowns look so happy.
I feed mine with OmegaOne flakes, shrimp pellets and freeze dried brine shrimp along with medium sinking pellet and algae wafers from New Life Spectrum. I highly recommend New Life stuff. My clowns noticably grown larger after start eating their food.

Made some modifications here on both tanks. Moved my 6 smallest Clown loaches from 200 liter to 450 liter tank and moved the 3 sidhimunki to there. To do that, had to take most decor out of both tanks to capture the fish.
Also took my Rivertank out from tank as it was consuming lots of energy and heating the water (remember I live in Rio de Janeiro and room temperature here is never bellow 28°C). Since I installed the 5,000 liter/hour circulating pump I had turned off the Rivertank.
The removal of Rivertank manifold:
24 hours later, water was not still 100% clear and fishes were still a bit shy but things soon started to go back as it was.
Tank with cloudy water:
Shy Clown loaches on their pipes:
16 Loaches:
20 Loaches:
23 Loaches:
Few shots of my Discus also:
