Not something that i have ever thought about in this tank, possibly because of some of the fish in the tank, i.e i would have to spend time each day replanting, and this tank dont have enough light on it for plants

Jave fern, java moss and anubias are awesome when it comes to low light requirements and they can be shoved into the cracks and crevices of your wood so they don't have to be replanted everyday.

Very nice setup. I really like the width of that tank.

Well it helps with the stocking of the tank, due to the water surface area (footprint)

It also gives you a sense of being in the water with them. Well it does for me anyway.

Nice pics, Clunk !

I see that reddish patch at the base of the tail fin. I've often wondered on that, wether it was an ailment or not. It's reassuring to see it on your fish, as I know how well they're pampered, and cared for !

I'm also very happy to see my three are still with me, after a month away. If I was to lose any fish, I would have bet a Clown or two to be amongst them.

Cheers.
All clowns have the redish patch so fear not.
Have you had a nice time away ?

Yeah, pretty good.

I note your Clowns have a 'plump' look from the side view. This being from a higher body profile than mine. Would this be a factor of age ? Mine are reasonably young.
