One of the best tanks I've seen- Hands down.

WOW! The pleco on the leaf was adorable, the tetra in the moss was cute (I thought it was dead at first :/), and the sock puppet-looking thing (I'm guessing that's the caecilian?) was kind of scary. Your tank is gorgeous!!!

Gorgeous video. It has inspired me to set up a tank for a pair (maybe 4 since it's a 100 gallon) of caecilians. VERY interesting creatures! Do you have issues with them eating your snails/shrimp though?

What is that big white sock puppet fish? I want one!

This was a pleasure to watch. That song from Wolf's Rain was a perfect touch, and the tank is utterly beautiful. I'm the type of guy that can see a lot of beauty in things such as caeclians.
From Hi Fins on 05/17/10

I really like this video. I really like the ram, and the tetras digging around in the moss is funny.
