55g Planted tank (The Start)

how do you live with those hoses in the front,?
That was an old photo, just temporary. :)

today did a few steps to the progression of the rescape
1- got rid of the majority of the floaters (Rick good luck with them)
2- took out the stones that will be remade into a lil something something i have in mind.

Maybe will post some pix of the stone project later tonight.

I love projects! :popcorn:
 
Alright dont have time at the moment to write out the story so will go straight to photos..

Dude!! Gotta love the island look. Can't wait till it's all settled in!

Thanks.
For now i threw some plants back in the tank until i sell them. I have about 40 stems of hygro bold i will need to get rid of soon.
Near future plant plans include:
Getting blyxa japonica once again and planting it in the left/right section of the tank. In the center front for now i have crypts there, will see how they do, if anything will replace them with micro tenellus or will give hairgrass a shot again.
I also have 5 kliner bar swords right now which i will arrange throughout the tank.

Near future upgrades/accessories:
Need ferts
Plan to get a Koralia 1 powerhead
Might sell the fluval 404 and get an eheim 2213-15 or 17

And finally Near future fish:
need to get some school of tiny fish. Im thinking of getting 22 or so white clouds to make a solid school of 30 fish.
 
Looks great!
 
I love big water changes, makes the water SO clear! Plans look good, a nice big school of WCMM would be beautiful!
