B-Day Aquascape, Fish, and Filter

[aquariumrookie]

My GF surprised me with a canister filter for my b-day, so I decided to reaquascape and clean everything up. I also recently added a firefish and a psychodelic mandarin gobie to the tank. I'll add pics of the gobie when I get a chance, but he's pretty camera shy. Let me know what you think about the aquascape, I tried to mix it up and build a cave.

Nice start, but your tank looks far to new to successfully be able to keep a mandarin long term. They need very established aquariums with an abundance of micro fauna to feed on off of the live rock.

That's unusual, your girlfriend giving you a thing for a fish tank. xD
Anyway, it looks great. =)

yeah, I have everything else and my g/f knew I really needed a good filter so she surprised me with it...I thought it was a really good idea. It has been up now for around 3 months, everything seems to be doing well except me accidentally ripping the feather-duster out of its hard tube when I aquascaped
