I don't think this is a real thing.  Pics or it didn't happen.  Where's your cool 55g RichE?  :P

I am still working on this, it is going to be the center tank in the fish room(middle of the floor)

It will be the last one I stock but I'm thinking a low light plant amazon driftwood theme so the viewing can be enjoyed from both sides

Cool.  Glad to hear you have not abandoned the project.  Hope it comes together well for you.

What about a big school of neon or painted tetras?

If your going with plants and driftwood I like cardinal tetras and rummy nose tetras. They group well, very active, and you can fit a lot of them in a 55. And a dash of pearl gourami or angelfish to keep them tight and moving.

I have about 18,000 rounds of .223 I'm  looking to get rid of, 100 rd bags. 1-4 bags $40 ea, 5-9 bags $38 ea, 10 or more bags $35 ea. I can't put this in the for sale section, its not fish related. No shipping.

This would look really nice too. I personally think that a school of 40+ cardinals or neons and a few nice rams or angels in a planted tank with nice wood would look AWESOME. Always wanted to do something like that
