Well I know everyone has been waiting on seeing this tank with some fish in it, especially me. Thanks to a friend of mine I picked up the fish today. I have an angel, a pair of german blue rams and a group of 4 pristella tetras. Before I put the fish in I made sure the water parameters showed 0 ammonia and 0 nitrite again (which it did). I then did a 95% water change to remove all the nitrates that had built up during the fishless cycle. After the water change I acclimated the fish and then added them to the tank. Here's a few pics from today.

Thanks again! Eventually I will have some more plants in there. Can anyone recommend a good low light plant that is somewhat tall that I can put in there? I'm not much of a plant guy yet.

Java fern and java moss. Not much of a plant guy either, but I've always had good luck with these without any special lighting, CO2 injection or any other special attention.

I have some of the Anubias (not sure which one off that list) but it grows well. Something called foxtail, and they're not tall at all, but I love the marimo balls. They occasionally float off and park themselves in other spots. Once it gets warmer I want to order a few dozen of them. Smile
