Pancakes themed tank

[eklikewhoa]

Since Houston is flooded with trophs and petros I took the opportunity to try something new...

I have grown an infatuation with pancake looking fish so I have started to acquire some various variants for this tank and will be housed in the 180g till the future tank is built.

To start... Vertical pancake or "mid air" pancakes (Myleus schomburgkii)




Horizontal pancake fish and whiskered flying lizard fish soon to come.


Snoop will be staying in this tank for as long as he can behave.
All the other stuff in the tank is my brothers, being housed in my tank for the time being.

[SunnyHouTX]

More like sharp bamboo stakes

Looks good, I kinda like the way it looks without a hard scape...

Too bad there is not a freshwater batfish or a nice FW goosefish

Nice looking fish ek...

how many tipes are there of this SP.

Thanks everyone.

For Scape I've kinda lost... I need to keep most of the footprint free for future inhabitants and nothing pointy or jagged for the other future inhabitants. If anything it will be kept to a minimal.

As for sp. from what I've read, there's two, the Emperor Red hooks (thin bar red hooks), Emperor Blue hooks (Wide bar blue hooks).

It will be a FW tank... No plants, just minimal hardscape if any.
