Me too, looks nice with my CO2 line shooting air bubbles right now. I'm really impressed with the compact corymbrosa, amazing plant

Thats a reptile container. This one goes for about 6.99 at pet smart. holds about a gallon maybe a little more. Looked like Tupperware to my untrained eye lol

It will be nicer once I add CO2 and everything fills out. Had a major algal bloom lest week so I was plucking leaves and thinning like mad.

Vallisneria americana ''mini twister'' Echinodorus "Ozelot" Echinodorus sp. ?

Some individual plant shots... Alternanthera reineckii 'Purple' (lilacina) Your basic Val... Not entirely sure if this is correct but... Hygrophila corymbosa ''Compact''

Couple of updates... -Ammonia dropped to 0 again, now I've got ~1 for nitrites. -Removed ALL plants, cut back and replanted. Took more pictas Former Spixi snail A couple of shots of what I see daily...

I'm not sure as well, I'd just think it to be a little more efficient to change it all and have it last 10 years vs 5 years or something with a partial change? I donno.

What kinda tank is that?

I love the colour scheme he has:)

By the sounds of it, you'd probably be best to remove ALL the old silicone and reseal the entire thing. It would probably give you a little more piece of mind as I do not believe its the best idea to just seal over old silicone (especially is that's what is holding the entire tank together.)

They look like it, various succulents

Nah, the wood took up way too much room in the tank. But it will be used in combination with the piece already in my 20G, in hopes of dividing the space for the lady bettas

Quick update, Ammonia is back to 0 so, 1 shall do a final water change here, re-scape it a little nicer and throw in a few white clouds

I don't think it's a problem, just too much of a good thing

I hope to go if I can snag a car that day lol

I don't think you have to worry about the place to put fish. There are usually fish tanks for sale at the auction as well. But then the mother comes into play :shifty:

I have read about using snow-water in tanks to induce breeding in some fish...

Basically I would just look through the loaches.com website... Dwarf Chain Loaches like this might be nice

Gotta work on having cash first lol and a place to put fish lol

Hard to trim the sponge with the way my tubing is set up so that has to stay for now. As for the foreground plants, I was gonna use them in my other tank. The ones is this tank are just cuttings from the Hygrophila. I'm kinda using the tank to grow out the plants for now, my original plans have changed quite a bit due to funding

yes How about to buy?

Then 3 new pics of the planted tank, no heater.

Since we need pics, I kinda skipped quite a bit of changes within the tank... Here are the first few pics (with heater as well as the piece of wood I had wanted to use, then cut to size).

I could probably try to land one from school lol I did a large water change, will do another and once ammonia drops, I'll hook up the CO2

Not at all, it'll save you on your electric bill to run a second bottle... DIY CO2 with a hose running into a smaller bottle then a hose from the smaller bottle into the tank.
