Has anyone else seen this tank on the AGA website? It looks a lot like an underwater scene that you may see in the U.S.. Just substitute Elodea for the Egeria, a native rush for the unidentified marginal, and Brook Sticklebacks for the U.K. counterpart. It's really a neat tank! I'm thinking of doing a similar tank for my Brook Sticklebacks.

Yes, very natural looking and really quite simple. Would make a nice theme with Culaea!

How do you care for your brook sticklebacks. I think they are very interesting fish, but mine just don't thrive. They eventually seem to waste away. Do you need to feed them only live food?
Thanks - Jan
