Well I recently got a ton of lovely plants from a very kind user on here, dixienut.

They've been in my tank for over a week now I think and they are lovely and I just wanted to share some pictures!

I don't know anything about fw and plants so if you see something wrong just tell me!

Oh also the background is a moss wall that hasn't grown in yet, though I can see its progress in just a week!

this one has always had a messed up face, he is cute :D


The inhabitants are 5 panda cories and 1 betta (that likes to spend lots of time hiding in the plants unless he knows its feeding time)

Now that I have this 10g set up, I really want a bigger planted tank and I'm already looking for a bigger tank for my SW fish so I can make the 55 into a planted paradise.

So yeah, hope you all enjoy and pointers are welcome :D
 
nice very nice moss wall ??? is it going to be growing on that board inside the tank or what never heard of that before and i am currently workin on getting my 55 gallon planted only 4 plants and large piece of drift wood
 
Very nice tank and fish!!!

I also have to admit to loving to see a "salty" come to FW. It makes me feel a bit better about wanting to start a SW tank. We can all get along afterall! :D
 
o yea i would try taking the floating plant out it seems to be blocking light for all the others
 
Nice looking tank! I got my plants for my 20 from dixienut also. I would plant that pennywort in the gravel instead of letting it float around.

moss is sandwiched between two peices of the screen and I guess it will start growing out of it. I dont really know what I'm doing but you can do a search on here and figure out how they work, lol

lol, yes we can all get along! I love SW and FW! I really want a giant school of tetras when I get a big FW tank. I don't want any big fish, because it seems that in SW you get lots of BIG fish. I just want little cute FW fish schools, lol
