Reply With QuoteLooks good! Keep us posted! I wonder if it'll be hard to see the driftwood with the black background or not since the dw will turn dark color when they're wet.

Does otocinclus go along with L134 or L620? I plan to put a pair of L134 or L620 along with corydoras. Wonder will they chase after the otocinclus? My fauna for this tank will be whiptail catfish, pleco, hllsttream loach and corydoras.
Will a comm tank look nicer or a species tank?

Corydoras and plecos will do well together. As for the loach, it seems to be abit out of the place....hmmm

fishpoo,
i'm not sure what type of plants suitable for this setup. Cause i'm doing a nature biotope and i think there's no plants in their nature habitat other then brown leaves..What do you think?

Maybe some Nana Petite here and there? I think a brother selling off some in the forum.
i guess a biotope is the best for the little fellas.... if you know exactly where they are from.... but personally i prefer to have some plants... adds contrast to the tank... both planted or not both has it's benefits i guess
