My Blackwater Project

[seanwelsh1]

Here is a little clip from my tank, its a little bit dark but then the water is dark . I will work on my video skills as this is a little grainy ! PH is around 6.1 with hardness at about 12

The inhabitants are

5 x Hoplarchus psittacus
4 x Crenicichla sp. 'lugubris atabapo'
2 x Satanoperca daemon
2 x Crenicichla saxatilis
2 x Caquetaia myersi
2 x Petenia splendida

a few catfish

Looks nice but why do you have Petenia splendida in blackwater? They are not going to like that low PH!

i know Robin , i offered them FREE and got no takers . They are the wild form and this weekend they will be going to the Local Fish Shop . To be honest the Caquetaia myersi need to be moved on as well as they are more white water fish
