I have it mostly finished off...though I'd like to add some colorful top swimmers and maybe a few more cories at the bottom. I added 6 or 7 from the critter, but only a couple have made it...
Anyway, 75g, 5 angels, real driftwood and rocks and a bunch of plants. I have an Eheim 2128 with a heater for filtration. Seems to work great.

I love this tank! I wish I was that good at decorating and also wish I was able to keep Angelfish alive.

Jess, Angels ain't hard. We'll talk. And the Diatom filter is still avail. if you need it. Let me know if you need it, otherwise I will just forget it, for now.

Rick, thank you so much for the opportunity to use the diatom but I think it's alright now. It's really weird how it just cleared up all of a sudden. I really do appreciate the offer... that's what club members/friends are for, right? LOL Hopefully, one of these days I'll have something to offer others... whether it be knowledge or cool gadgets.

Thanks for all the compliments! Took me a while to get it where I wanted it, but it's close now.
What do you think I should add for the top swimmers? I'd love something colorful, but most things like Cardinal tetras are are going to be small enough that the Angels will likely eat them...

cardinals will be fine... some might get eaten, but I think you'll love the contrast the red gives you Tank looks great

Agreed. A net full of Cardinals would look great in there!

Any ideas where I can get a bunch of Cardinals for a reasonable price? I like the critter, but at $2 a pop, I'd be sinking a bunch of money into what is potentially fish food...

Look on AB, and FYI, buying in bulk is cheaper. Many home breeders will love you writing to them via the site, asking for a larger sale.
