Our freshwater aquarium – 3.10.2010

Juwel RIO 180 Freshwater Aquarium

This is our a bit over a month old aquarium, Juwel RIO 180. As you can see from the picture, I would like to get some more plant growth, although I am more than confident that the plants are well in the ecosystem. As we migrated from a 100 liters thank to this 180 liters tank, we are still a bit short on plants. But I think I will wait for the current plants to grow a bit more to see how many still are needed.

The main fish in the tank are guppy, with some platy and tetra fish. Their is also a single female Dwarf Gourami (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwarf_gourami) so we would need to get her some company and get a male one. Unfortunately already two of the male Dwarf Gouramis deceased in this new tank… But I think the water conditions are now stable and without nitrites, so we’ll probably get a new one pretty soon.
