Hi All,
I thought I'd introduce myself... although I've only been looking at PCS Forum for a few weeks its been of great help in helping me establish my new planted tank.
I am quite new to aquariums, and am in the early stages of stocking my newly cycled 4ft tank (photos attached of it as is this morning).
All is going quite well, although I'm already learning about the delicate art of algae control. Right now there are only 6 young Red Phantom Tetras and 2 young Royal Whiptails, but all are happy and soon to be joined by some Cardinals. Later I am looking forward to introducing some Apistos (hoping to get two different pairs... a pair of Cacs and perhaps some Borelii or Baenschi if I can some any). Still working on the best way to define territories and breeding spots so the aquascpe is still in development (along with the healthily growing plants). Eventually I hope to introduce a couple of Discus to the tank, but want to build up my skills and equipment first.
Anyway, nice to meet you all. If anybody has any comments or suggestions following my brief intro to my current tank, I'd love to hear!
