Hi everyone. Been on here quite some time but thought I'd post some photos of my aquarium 50 UK GAL (about 65 USA GAL) in it's current "modded" state.

The main attractions are the 9 Clown loaches which can be seen doing the "loach dance" every morning when I wake up - it is fantastic.

I also have 4 filamentosa barbs (same as 12 Volt Man)

1 Silver prochilodus (flagtail)

2 Syno catfish and one Plec.

Running on it I have an FX5 and a 1200LPH powerhead with airtubing.

I'm going to post some pics now, and will return in a few months and hopefully I'll see Loach growth!:headbang2

Hey, not spotted any alpha yet - they are still small perhaps in time will happen. At the moment the flagtail seems to be their boss, he chases them if they annoy him, quite funy and no one comes to harm. Loaches are just awesome I recommend anyone keeping clowns with bala sharks to sell the sharks. Loaches are just so much less skittish now. Tank is gonna look awesome when these babies are 12inch in a few years (which will definately need upgrading).

Filament barbs! I've started to become rather fond of them.
