Here. here, dougall!! More crypts please!! I'll look at your link tomorrow, it's dinner time.

OK, Kim, you live near a big city...Once we're done staying home, eventually, you absolutely need to go to a club meet!! You may have fish clubs & a plant club too. dougall & I are strong supporters of both! It's fun!! I almost never buy plants anymore but I may have the most awesome club ever!! I miss those meets & all the people these days, sniff.

I'm just trying to grow romaine outside for now...

Thank you so much! Yes I have a friend bringing me a variety of crypt plants next week! I thought this bundle had less swords :/
I have tabs open to all the plant species and am spending the day doing some more reading. Thank you so so much

Make bookmarks... Tabs are evil ;)

But, if you hadn't noticed, there are a few around here who like to talk about plants

The friend that is gonna bring me some crypts will take any swords I don’t want :) I think I am gonna go with a couple more fish and monitor my plants and water for awhile. While I read up. I hear taking notes is a great way to learn from my own tank. I think I am going to do that as well.

Seems like a great trade, crypts will suit your tank better. What kind of fish are you thinking of?
I have been doing some reading since I completed the task of making the existing fish appropriate numbers. And while I would be stretching way out of my wheelhouse I am leaning towards a single or even a possible pair of German Blue Rams. I probably would call it complete at that point. And wouldn’t add anymore gudgeons either. From what I have read they would go well and the tank would have a ton of color.

Differing things will do better or worse with your water conditions, sometimes the easiest thing to do is just try.

If you haven't already, look for a posted of aquarium plant deficiencies, it may help steer future decisions.
