My first attempt at a planted tank...build log.

Came home yesterday and found a package in the mail box from a friend on another board.

It contained these:

And these:

I just hope they do as good in my tank as they are in his....these were trimmings. Not sure what they are though...forgot to ask.

Guess I'll go ahead and post yet another pic of my tank with the new additions from Gil up front on the far left, and far right of the tank (and a few more Amazon Swords in the middle):

I almost threw out all the hornwort I had...pulled some of it out of the trash can a few minutes after tossing it and wrapped it around my filter pieces though (top left and right of the tank). Some of the fish like to use it to hide when they are in the upper area of the tank....guess it doesn't look too bad just floating around in the corner. Plan on keeping it trimmed though because the stuff had gone nuts and was taking over the tank. :grinyes: Still need something tall in the middle...I'm hoping the wisteria will get tall and I'll plant some more on the right to balance things out.
