Here are my cardinals and one of my cory's! I have 8 cardinals in this tank, and 5 Schwartz Corydoras, love how this stocking works out, it's close to being too small for the tetras, but they're only juveniles and I plan to build a huge tank to fit perfectly atop this stand and they're going there.

Here's some shots with my shrimp, I have this same strain of Neocardina in a 6 gal, and I noticed that here in this tank they grow a whole lot more than in there, possibly due to more frequent feeding, possibly due to the size of the tank itself. I very rarely feed the shrimp tank to keep it from being taken over by snails or having to see planaria or hydra popping up.

The yellow orbs you see in some of the shrimps are fertilized eggs! I have a surprising amount of them eggnant at the same time.

And here is one last picture of the tank before I move on to the next one.

Looking very different than the last one, this is my first proper blackwater tank, at about 17 gal and housing only a single dwarf gourami and a few snails, this is what I had to build in a hurry after my boy Aster started getting too territorial with the cory's in his previous tank. This was also part of an experiment in using Guava wood in aquariums, they're famously hard wood and commonly available here in brazil, no hardscape piece in this tank was bought, all collected by me manually!

Here's the boy! Aster is by far my most personable and favorite fish, though I'm biased due to him being named by my girlfriend. I don't have much to say besides the fact that he's loving his new space! I'll post some more pictures of him but that should be it for the update.
