A complete strip down and rescape is a pending possibility at the moment too.

Don't know if I'm still keen on hard scape layout. Time will tell. 🙂

Re: Ryuoh Ravine ----- Update-----
Hi Nath,
looks much better after the trim, it has more shape and allows the eye to look through the tank. I think the p. erectus would look good behind the rock as it doesnt get too large and would fit nicely with the current plants. If you keep it trimmed to just above the rock top and into the right corner it will add another layer but wont draw the eye up and out of the scape
Was quite taken by the Tinwini's at Maidenhead today, nice fish.
Rescapes are always on the mind.....
Cheerio
Ady.

Re: Ryuoh Ravine ----- Update-----
Thank you Ady, I'm with you on that one. The Rotala became too leggy and made it look very messy In there.
I'm going to look at getting a couple of 1-2 Grow pots of Pogo. I think, let that grow nearer rock and leave a hiding space in the back for the Tinwinis.
They really are fantastic little fish, great to watch as the 36 I have literally follow each other in a massive conga line around the tank
When I started, I used to think Cryptocorynes were ugly and could not understand why people liked them so much, but now I do. When they thrive they are absolutely stunning plants, and mine are doing very well.

Oh, forgot to mention, there's another Grobeam en route. So that should ensure a good distribution of lighting.

Re: Ryuoh Ravine ----- Update-----
I may ask for a dimmable ATI sun power for Christmas
I like the idea of being able to add a sunrise and sunset period, means you can also slowly build up co2 with the lights to peak for a few hours before switching off for the sunset period 8)
Cool, at least with these systems you have the power to reduce intensity as you pleaseWhitey89 said:

Re: Ryuoh Ravine ----- Update-----
Yeah, I was in the same boat regards ATI. I really wanted one.
These TMC tiles really are good though, I just thought another one could be beneficial for spread into the corners, but on 50% each or something like.
Also the new one will come with A storm controller, so that'll be something to play with

Hey Ian,
They Are Danio Tinwinis, fantastic little fish with a beautiful gold and very dark blue/ black spot coloration.
They really can shift, I wanted to show both how fast they were and how they acted in large groups, Hoggie was interested in these, so hopefully will show behaviours.

Re: Ryuoh Ravine >> VIDEO ADDED<<
They are very nice too Hoggie.
I like the body shape and behaviour of these little chaps.
PFKs recent two part article was excellent on Danios showing the diversity of the colours they exhibit.
I however was not pleased with their picture of the Tinwini, looking more like a cooked 'white bait' than the real thing.
It's in the second of the two parts, I believe it was Octobers? And it's on the BOTTOM RIGHT of the LEFT HAND PAGE.
Someone take a look and tell me if it looks anything similar?

I Also fed them Hikari Micro Granules, as well as frozen foods such as Bloodworm(chopped small) Tubifex and daphina.
Anything that hits the surface, they tend to eat.

They do indeed. Make the bloodworm an occasional treat rather than the norm though 😉

Okay guys just a short update, Gots some new residents :
Taiwan/Singapore Fire Red Cherry Shrimp (20)

Another change, Planted plenty of Pogostemon Erectus in the back, Hopefully will make a fantastic backdrop:
Cheers 🙂
