Thought i would share my 16 Gal bowfront. Been running for 3 months now.
Everything has been good with no issues as of yet. In another month i will ad a pair of small perc's clowns and call it complete.. Here is a pic on my tank..

2 clowns would be good. I wouldnt put more than that in there and that elegance can get really big btw

I agree. 2 baby perc clowns if i can find them. No more fish than that though. I do a 5 gallon water change every week since start up so i have no water issues and just add trace elements and calc and mag as needed...

Oh, and yes the elegance loves it in there and does span out well. I have had them before.... I once upon a time in the 90's had a 150gal bowfront that was very nice. Wife and i went on vacation and after we arrived back home, we discovered the power had been out and all died in the tank. I was so frustrated I just cleaned it out and left it set to this day. I was heart broken as it had been up for 4 years and was my pride and joy.... I just recently decided to have a go at it again but start small just in case of.. the unforseen!!!

Ok I see it now, must be the way the light hits the back in that picture. Nice little tank! I'd have to agree 2 clowns at the max in there. Looks like you have a good variety of frags, it should look great when they grow out
