Ok the fun has began...lol i've added some fish and drift wood and a few fake plants.
fish list so far.
5 Powder blue angles
5 silver angles(look like ultum crosses)
5 corys
11 black neon tetra
10 marble hatchet fish
2 red discus (rare, have to get real name) Also a breeding pair.
2 prue white discus
2 yellow discus
2 snake skin discus
2 blue dimond discus
2 geo serinemisis
2 geo Balzini
Remember this is a 230 gallon with high filtration so stocking should be fine. I postsome pictures asap just waiting for some of the discus to come in.

Beleive it or not i just got tired of the feeding and maintaining the tank, sold everything. Feeding high protein foods like shrimp, beefheart, smelts, freeze dried krill just add to water changes and at least 2 50% water changes weekly min. I just wanted to get back to pellets and few red worms once and while.
I'll always be watching for some black rays at a good price but for now as my wife puts it a pretty tank is nice for a change.....lol

Nice set-up. It'll look really good when the plants grow out. Smile

Very nice set up! I will be interested in any baby angels you might encounter in the future. I keep discus and angels as well(Seperate tanks though) and got 20 discus in my 210. The filtration is massive so I know exactly what you are working with.

What are your PWC's schedule like with this one? Using RO?

I do a 50% every 3rd day on the discus tank and 50% weekly on the angels.
