I have heard the more they surface the dirtier the water is. I keep albino bronze cories love them.

Here are some more pictures. I read that it's better when the room is dark and the light is on. Definitely helped the reflection problem! Quality is still bad, but hey, phone camera, what can I do?

I have 10 cories of 6 different species and at first they stuck with their own kind...but now that I have them in a larger tank, they all hang out together. One of my albinos appears to be best friends with one of the julii cories.

ltg....good looking tank! I've been eyeballing that same tank for a dwarf puffer.

Like Nike says... just do it :P The stock light is bright and beautiful and more than enough to grow plants, and the moonlight mode is really cool. (If you haven't seen my Flickr album, I linked it in my last post. One of the pictures is of moonlight mode.)

I don't know if dwarf puffers like a strong flow or not, but that's my only complaint with the tank. You can see that one water bottle later, I resolved that problem, though it does seem to make the filtration less efficient (something about half of the clean water shooting right back into the filter, I guess...)

In any case, it's a beautiful tank, and I love how all of the cords, filter, and even heater are kept completely out of sight, and all you're left with is your plants and fish :D
