"Placidity" Does that look like it?

I have moved three of the large Anubias back a bit they were overtaking the tank.
Most of the driftwood is now fully covered and some of the rocks are well on the way as well.

I will post seperate photos of the Anubias Jungle

Woah, you weren't kidding when you said anubias jungle. That's a lot of anubias. What other plants are there? Very nice work.

Hey Keith,

Anubias overtaking a tank ...now THAT'S not something you hear everyday

Tank looks amazing by the way -great job.

HMMM.. names. I've told you before I love the air of mystery in your tank, I could sit there for hours looking to see what was going to pop out of one of those dark corners next ! So I'm thinking something with an air of the mystical and I think almost all your fish are Asian so how about..Xanadu or Shang ri la ?

Is "Placididy" a real word ??

It took me a while to locate a suitable word. When I am feeling a bit down I just sit and watch. I have noticed the wife doing the same thing. It is also the only thing that will keep the active 8yld grandson quiet for several minutes and that is a big feat.

Hi Keith,

I do the same thing. Get home in the evening from work, more often then not stressed and frustrated, lie down on the sofa with a cup of coffee and a cigarette ( my last remaining vices, can't shake them) and watch the tank for half an hour - feel a whole lot better.

Thanks for the definition, my English is becoming appalling, been speaking Russian, Chinese and Indonesian for the last 10yrs, have a tendency to mangle them up these days. In work I usually speak a strange mixture of Indonesian, Chinese and English - all of this wrapped in a thick Dublin accent, my wife says I sound like a Leprechaun from the Planet Zog

There is only one Irishman worse. A very heavy broag, no teeth, and an extremly poor education.

I had to try and work with him.

Now that is totally non understandable.

Nice.

I thought I might get some different ideas about naming the tank but no. Some one must have some good ideas. I am always open for any good ideas.
