Hi,
I set up a tank for my room mate in September using a standard AGA 10 gallon that I ripped the rims off. We just added the tank's main inhabitant: an itty bitty little female G. smithii! I'd guess she's almost two inches. The funny thing is that the first day we had her in the tank, she was out and about exploring like crazy. Since then (two days) she's been hiding, showing little more than her eyes from the burrow. Is this normal for a smithii? My peacock was the opposite when I first got her (shy first, then social).
Anyway, here's the full tank:
And the only two pictures I've been able to catch (dead batteries the first day):
Tank runs a biowheel filter, stealth heater, and normal output T5 lights. I'm very open to suggestions if you have any for an improvement.
And here are a few new pictures of my peacock Ally:
