here are some pics of my 20 long. half water, half land w/ red belly newts and ADF's. i used the tank terrace system from my LFS for the land. has a 10 gallon heater because of half the water volume, 20 gallon spill over filter using a locking rock system to make a water fall (to cut down on the surface water disruption). it is heavily planted with aqua fern, and is fully cycled. hope you enjoy!!!! also my newts are being picky with there food any suggestions??? thanks

Very lightly planted, I'd suggest. Does that fern grow underwater? I'd be inclined to throw a few fish in as well.

Wow, that looks cool - the rock spillway is a great idea!

That fern doesn't look aquatic... you may want to keep an eye on it. If you are looking for a similar look, go for bolbitis (african water fern). I've heard Msjinkzd has some great specimens!

I'm sure some livebearer fry wouldn't hurt...

thanks everybody and i will look into a better plant, the plants in there now were advertised as aquatic and are called aqua fern (common name) Trichomanes javanicum
