Hello everyone, I just joined up because I just got back into aquariums and such. I finally had an extra open area in my dorm room for a tank so I went out and found a really great deal on a used 26 gallon bow front. I also have a 5 gallon hex set up in my dorm. I wish i could go bigger but I am already exhausting all the room in my dorm (plus I'm not supposed to have a tank over 15 gallons in here ) Anyways I just snapped some pictures for you all because I know you probably like to see other peoples tanks.
I have 1 betta fish right now because Im really trying to get everything set up... this is my first time seriously trying live plants. They haven't died after 2 weeks so I dont think I'm doing too bad. I have a 10W CF light on my 5 gallon and I fit 2-15w tubes over my 26 gallon... I still dont think this is enough light so last night I bit the bullet on a 65w 24" CF light. That should give me plenty of light for my 26 gallon I'll have to get some pictures when it comes (hopefully these plants will start growing like crazy then). Anyways enough rambling. Here are the pix!
Any suggestions/feedback is great!
