    @Slagter I have a pair of dwarf Cockatoo cichlids and two small kribs, I want to get another pair of apistos too, or maybe rams

    @wolf There seems to be a shadow there, as both substrates look exactly the same

    Great looking setup you have there?

    What type of moss have you got in there, it looks very nice
