Planted tank with a giant school of Rummy Nose. Google Spencer Jack, he is the king of cichlids and stocks a ton of fish.

Yeah, I've seen his website before. He has a good reputation here in Canada. I was considering a planted tank if I go with discus, but not with a South American cichlids tank though; too much hassle to keep them from uprooting the plants.

How about a paludarium, I've always wanted to set up one. It could look pretty awesome with a corner tank

Hey, that might be an idea Marie. They are pretty cool. I don't know a whole lot about them but that's what makes it fun right?

They don't grow too big and have alot of machismo... Altolaprologus either the comps or calvus both are very cool fish. Ambush predators so they won't need alot of aquarium length for swimming.They grow very slow so buy the largest you can.

LMAO I have a 14 gal bio cube with about 50 guppies in it, all I need is the bubbling diver, maybe some neon plastic plants. Think you may be onto something.
