    GBR = German Blue Ram

    Thanks for the kind words all. The tank has only been running for about 6 weeks so lots of growing still to come. The driftwood is in fact 2 pieces that I put like that to make it seem like 1 big piece.

    Nice! What sort of filter are you using. Is it an internal that I see?

    Yip, its a built-in filter running about 750l/h. It's a little low but the water quality is great. I am looking at adding a Fluval canister to the mix in the near future.
