I don't know what happened but overnight I got bit by a bug...one that gave me fish fever after about a 4 year hiatus.
So a few days ago, I dug out my 10g and 1g tanks I'd stashed away. For giggles, I put some ghost shrimp in the 10g. I only have 7 (that was all my LFS had left) but I may get more later, and planted (and by plant, I mean, simply stuffed the roots in the gravel, I don't have plant food, lights or CO2 yet) some dwarf hairgrass and Bacoba in there for the shrimps to hide and crawl on.
Well, of course that didn't satiate my desire so today I picked up a 55g FW setup from a friend's neighbor.
I've got everything situated where I want it, but I'm frothing at the bit trying to decide what I'm gonna put in this 55g. Do I wanna try my hand at planted? Do I wanna try a bigger fish than I'm used to? It's a blank slate and I'm excited as all get out but overwhelmed.
I need input!!! Gimme ideas!!!
