These are pics of my planted 20 gallon community tank(finally). It's my first planted tank. I took the pics with a camera phone before my weekly water change and vac(tomorrow).. most of the stuff you see on the sand is soggy algae wafer lol.
Also.. the big Amazon Sword in the front left isnt really planted, it's waiting to be relocated.
Alsoooo lol.. I don't have a full background on the tank because I forgot about it while I was setting the tank up, then the paint was smelly and I was worried about the fumes going into the tank thru the HOB.
Fish:
7 Harlequin Rasboras(soon to be 6, 1 is sick.. the thred is in Gen. FW)
1 Male Betta
4 Ottocinclus cats
1 Rubberlip Pleco
+2 big brigs(no pics of them)
+a bunch of MTS(no pics)
+some snails of another species that im unsure of(no pics)
Plants:
3 Amazon swords
Pennywort
Java Moss(i think, the store sold it unnamed)
1 Dwarf Sag
a bit of Amazon Frogbit(not pictured)
1 small Corkscrew val(not very corkscrewed, in the blurry pic between the swords.. didnt even know it was growing until today)
Let me know what you guys think

I think you might have an overstocking problem with those last three. :D
Great driftwood, looks like it was cut to fit your tank. Was it?
Beautiful piece of wood. It really makes the tank.

ill try to get a night pic of the tank when the room is dark.. i have a feeling it will look closer to what it actually looks like in person at night.. less glare n watnot. im sure the plant scape will change up in the near future.. i might be moving the stuff in this tank to the 55 soon when my O moves out if i dont use the 55 for a sump
yeah, the DW is awesome. i was so psyched about it lol... i talked about how awesome it is in a thread that i started a while ago for this tank. of course, i didnt have pics then. i planned the tank around the piece of DW, though im not completely happy with the scape yet.
it was prob cut to fit the tank.. it came with the tank at a yardsale about 4-5 years ago. i had a gecko in this tank for 3+ years before i got into fishkeeping
the bigger 2 of the last 3 really have me overstocked.. they pick on eachother all the time!.. the smallest isnt really a problem yet, but eventually hes gonna be another lil PITA lmao

You better lock up that driftwood. It might "dissapear".
