Comments

This is a fine tank indeed and I'm happy that your fish liked too and felt inspired... However for biotope aquaria I don't like mixing plants from elsewhere. Thus if Tanganyika is your biotope then select plants from Tanganyika!

Even thiugh the size of the tank the dsigner was able to fill it pretty well! I still think it can use many more fish. The tank is clean and healthy and this is important when housing such rare species.

Nice tank but not a true biotope tank.
