    Nice reproduction of the Rio Negro! :D

    I saw a film where they were shooting underwater pictures of the river and it did look much like this! (thinly planted with lots of wood!)

    Cardinal Tetras are much prettier than those Neons and the Cardinals LOVE blackwater!

    I like the rummynoses, I have I believe 2 or 3 in my tank now...the only thing that ticks me off is that my lfs can never get in healthy specimens of them...even when they try to net them most die quickly of just being "netted".

    Have ya ever experienced that drazzil when getting yours?

    Ps. I want that moss stick. Lol! I'd defin make a spot for it..really nice!
