Pop Eye Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 (edited) I have an old digital camera that I thought I would take some pictures with. They didnt turn out that good. But you get the general idea. This is my planted 90 gallon with rainbows and rams They are so fast they are hard to take pictures of. Especailly because they see me and think there going to get food. This is my 75 gallon mixed malawi cichlids This is my sad picture of Neolamprolgus tretocephalus. Look at Sammys to see a awsome picture.

Pop Eye Posted August 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 (edited) When I first got my 90 the fish store told me there was no way I could grow plants in it. I tried anyways, cuz I love plants and Ive never had a problem what so ever. Ive had a planted tank for 2 years now. I did have the nice florite gravel and all that stuff. I spent lots of money on all the good stuff for a planted tank. I then went back to school. So I have been keeping the tank on a low budget. I think it looks good though, all the plants are healthy and growing. I got rid of the florite and stuff and bought polished rocks for substrate from Canaar. Nothing else. I use Big Als multi purpose plant food.. Usually once a week- 2 weeks. I used to buy the expensive bulbs at LFS. Now I buy from home depot 4- T12's (40 watts). 2 grow lights and 2 daylights. They do a better job then the expensive ones. There around 4.00 dollars each. I bought the light fixture from home depot for 15 dollars. I use 2 Red Sea Turbo Co2 Bio systems on the tank. It does the job just fine. Good enough for me anyways. I just got the lotus. 2 weeks ago. It has doubled in size in 2 weeks. I love it. Im thinking of getting another.
