With all of the live plants in there I feel pretty good about my setup.  Sweet.  :-)

I'll just re-post this here because I did it under the video instead.

I would let the bushy background plants grow out to hide the back of the tank and give it another layer of depth.  It's a big tank with a big filter on it, so I think the bio load will be fine.  It looks great just real busy.  Lots of different species.  Just think if you got rid of the small tetras and added that amount of rasboras.  31 Rasboras schooling around in there would look sick.  I have a school of Rasboras, a school of Corys, 2 Rams and 2 Apistos( thinking of ditching the rams).  I like how the rasboras school in the background while the Apistos are the focal point of the tank.  Just my opinion.

Thank link and website rocks!  I just bookmarked.  Thanks so much for sharing that.  I got dinged on this link for being over stocked:

It really bugged me because I grew up to that level.  Do weekly water changed of almost 60% and have the lights on a timer.  Fans setup with the lights and keep the water temp right at a perfect 80.0 F.  It stays within 1/2 degree of that.  Current temp reading in the dark with no light is 80.4 and it will cool down until the lights kick on around 9AM.

Thanks for everyones great feedback!  I've been in a sour mood since last week when I got dinged.

 

Still getting over it.  I actually caught a few fish including the Amazon Puffer that was eating my shrimp, two black skirt tetras and the flame gourami back to mlfs.

 

The flame had started spawning with the dwarf.  It was very odd.  But when that started the alpha Pearl started hammering the Flame Gourami to the point of knocking off a scale.  I only have one tank so I took him back before he was permanently harmed.  Someone bought him within the hour of me brining him into the store.  :-)  I like the fish to live if at all possible.  So hard to balance a community tank.
