I've always wanted to try making a river aquarium and finally I made one!
Key design aspects: long tank, Intake and outlet on opposite sides, and use an external pump if your filter just didn't cut it.
The fish I added are now some of my absolute favorites: Bamboo Shrimp & The Hillstream Loach.
Let me know what you thought of it!
Hope you enjoyed,
-Bryan

The monstera will work. Same with photos, bamboo, philodendron(i think is monstera), peace lilly. Etc etc. I have 1 tank that has all of these on top. Growing for 6 years right now. Its a mental green bush on top.

That looks like a raphidaphora tetresperma you added in there rather than a monstera. It'll actually work great in there, but you might want to make sure at least one node is above the water. They're vining plants, and will lose their fenistration if it isn't growing vertically/gripping on to something. This is like the most beautiful nano tank I've seen. For real I'd pay someone to scape my tank like this if I had the time for a tiger pleco

Tank looks amazing, just wondering where you got the river stone from?

@thefishtankexperiment 2 ай бұрын

The bigger stones I had to get from a local fish tank store because those are the specific colors I was looking for, but some of the smaller ones I picked up outside. I know some people will go to landscaping businesses and get their stones there for better prices though

Be careful if you add other fish to the tank. The hillstream loaches can be pretty aggressive when there is food around and mine have made 4 of my fish jump out of the tank :(. So now I have a lid on. Very cool tank, I like it a lot!

@JohnGarcia-zm3wd 2 ай бұрын

Really what kind of fish jumped out , i thought about adding the hill stream loaches to my tank

@emmso94 2 ай бұрын

@@JohnGarcia-zm3wd 3 Green rasboras and a peacock gudgeon. I added a new peacock gudgeon and the hillstream loach hates her! Especially around feeding time, I hope it will calm down soon! It doesn’t chase fish bigger than itself.
