My First Planted
- Thread starter LondonDragon
- Start date
Thanks, and sure is a white betta
missed that bit about the paradise fish (though it might have been the rainbows lol)
Added a couple of plants, rotalla to the right and one which I am not the name to the left.
The riccia is doing well, the riccia I added to the branch at the back is really growing fast, the riccia on the rock became loose so I had to tie it back down and not doesn't look as good any longer and the riccia on the mesh is groing but not at a rate i like, think the light as trouble reaching that deep since the riccia on the branch is growing fast and always pearling and near the gravel does not pearl, distance from light to gravel is 50cm.
Full Tank:
Riccia on branch (View from above):
Riccia on Rock and mesh:
Left hand side:
Right hand side:
Riccia ballon, just a silly test held on a rock by a string:
Hope you enjoyed the photos
Any comments and critics always welcomed

I think the tank is beautiful; specially for your first planted tank. As with most heavily planted tanks I always wonder if the fish have enough space to swim? I'd think its gotta be getting pretty tough to vacuum at this point in time - no?
What is that - about a 145L / 38g tank? Have you relocated the clowns?
Thanks Tycoon
Thanks for the feedback
I don't have a lot of fish in this tank, mainly the harlequins and the 4 rainbows, guppies in there get removed all the time to my other tank, then just have the corrys at the bottom and the clown loaches (yes they are still there, anyone want to give them a new home?). The photos were also taken before the weekly trim, I will be doing the triming this evening and then post some new photos
Thanks for the feedback
