How did you attach it to the tank?

I have a hob filter and snuck it under there but clear hockey tape works as well

I finally did the sticky vinyl and it was a breeze. I will never apply a background with tape or spray paint a tank anymore.

(don't know if you guys noticed but it was the background of my fry tank)

I should have looked when I was there! I'm a dummy.

It's all coming together nicely, job well done!
Is this where you're going to house the A. cacatuoides juvies?

Ah, I see you went with the marbled hatchets, nice touch. How many of those did you get?

The juvies are in my fry tank. I forgot that I had one when I was talking to you. It was a long day. I really like the marble hatches. I decided to go with neon as the cardinals were still under quarantine and I am inpatient.

I saw those guys at BA wanted some so badly but no tank space. A new tank in the future perhaps

Yeah I thought  they looked pretty sweet. I guess I will have to set up another apistos tank for my cockatoos. What a shame!

I like the first picture, the colours are beginning to get intenser.

Nice looking fish, great colors.

How are they acting up together? Did you think about maybe getting a trio to increase your pairing chances and disperse some of the aggression (if and when it comes)?

Never kept agassizi so I don't know if that's even an option for that size tank...

Keep us updated!
