Second aquarium!

Hi there!

So i set up my second aquarium yesterday, and what can i say...it looks great! :) Dont mind about the bubbles on the glass, because they are normal, at the first steps of setting aquarium, they'll be gone in few days. Still needs a bit more of that gravel.





Background on its place now.


I was thinking like Gouramis for this aquarium, and some algae eater, but will see. What would you recommend?

Information, as promised!

Hi again!
So as i have promised, i would put a bit more information on here, of my aquarium. 

This one is my first aquarium. Its almost have full set up, but its still needs the heater and air pump, and of course somesort of air stone  I have 2 living plants on it, and they are doing great at this moment! specially after installing the filter. The filter is Eheim pickup 45. It's designed for 45l tank, but it works perfectly on this size tank too. The water has been dramatically cleaned, after the filter. The gravel is just a pretty basic colour (white, black, brown) and i will be getting 5kg more of that gravel, so i can plant the plants, and have to get some fertilizer too at the same time, so they are be healthy overtime.

This ones are the plants.
The filter, i costed only 36e, so not bad at all. I keep the water flow somewhere around 100L /h. And it has three years  guarantee too.

Sorry about the blurriness about the picture but, you can see already that it has cleaned some old roots from the water


Some aquasafe for the water, because i use tap water, and its dangerous for the fishes, so 10ml for 20L of water.
My Digital thermometer. The heat is somewhere 25-26 degrees, for my American friends, its about 76-79 Fahrenheit.

This are my decorations for my other aquarium, which you can see down below this page, they came with the aquarium, which i bought from the second hand shop.  So it was a quite nice suprise :)


So this one is the bigger aquarium. It's about 80L. 


This is my other Gravel, which im going to put in my bigger aquarium. Have to clean the gravel first from the dust and all other dirt.
This background came with the bigger aquarium too, so definitely nice piece for that one.
On a next week, i will be buying little bit more stuff on my aquarium, and of course, the most important thing too, the fishes! I was thinking about, maybe neon tetras? What would you suggest for the 60L aquarium?
