Advice:
Consider using rain water. No chemical treatment required and ideal for plants and fish suited to soft water.
Our collected rainwater has a PH of 5.0, but fortunately this is being naturally buffered to 7.0 by the large pink rocks seen in the aqurium.
Try to understock the aquarium.
Some plants were planted in shallow plastic dishes containing organic fertiliser covered with sand and gravel.

About Yourself:
I am a currently a part time student and full time worker... Only one more year to go.. Woo Hoo!! I was always interested in having a fish tank but never new were to start until my coworker gave me my first fish in a two gallon tank. I then quickly upgraded to a 15 gallon and now I currently have a 40 gallon tank and am looking to upgrade to a 100 gallon tank in the near future.
Fish Kept:
5 Clown Loaches
5 Tiger Barbs
3 Angel Fish
3 Bala Sharks
1 Rainbow Shark
1 Chinese Algae Eater
1 Candy Stripe Pleco (L-135)
Corals/Plants:
Jungle Vals, Anubis, Java Ferns on drift wood, java moss, one onion plant, plus others.
Tank Size:
40 gallons
Advice:
Cycle your water before adding fish. Once your tank is established please keep your water changes frequent and consistent. Also find yourself a good LFS (Local Fish Store) and Petco doesnt count. An LFS employee will actually know what they are talking about. Most of the time. Last but not least always do your own research...

Description:
i actualy didnt even plan on rearanging my aquarium untill i came across this rock.it is a forty six-gallon bowfront. the substrate is crushed coral, live plants from a local river, the rock actualy came from the same river, i saw it when i was snorkeling and had to go back and get it! i currently only have five, inch long african cichlids. one daffodill, two yellow labs, and two kenyii. the filtration consists of two hang on penguin bio wheel 300's. lighting is provided by only one flourescent 10,000 k bulb, when i can afford it im gonna get a twin bulb compact fixture. the heater keeps the tank a constant 78 degrees f. and the koralia current creator helps keep the water moving constantly, it flows around the front of the rock, keep in mind this tank was created on a budget
