You know that I usually prefer my fish HUGE and colorful. I love big cichlids, both African and South American. So starting a planted nano tank and filling it with small fish is something very different and new for me. A whole new direction. In this video I get into how I'm warming up to smaller fish, to the idea of a community planted fish tank and introduce you to the new fish I will be including initially in the nano planted fish tank project.
What are your thoughts on this topic? After watching the video please feel free to let me know if there are some fish and plants that I should consider including in the new tank project. It's all new to me so your thoughts and experience will be greatly appreciated. Never forget that we all learn from each other around here! Thanks!
Don't ever forget that you reading this right now, YOU ROCK!
