Hi Sayid!
Wow this looks amazing! And what beautiful Discus you have! 500 liters omg thats huge haha
Can i ask you where you got the little black plants holders? They would be perfect for my tank too!

Hi Sabrina;
Thanks for the kind words , you go to bunnings ,they are black plastics to hold metal mesh when they make concrete drive ways ,they cost $ 9.95 for 10 of them ,you then cut one side with hacksaw and wala you have a plant holder and best of all you don't get food ,poop etc stuck underneath so you can vacuum your tank in 5 minute literally.
HTH

Oh wonderful, thank you so much! I have sand in my tank though, but not deep enough to plant the roots so these holders will be perfect. And i have
Albino Corydora Catfish whom clean my tank for me on the most part, the discus dont even bat an eye when a Cory goes flying buy anymore lol
