100% happy thanks, just impatient now for them to grow in. Its great no longer having to look at my fake plants that were falling apart after a few months in there. I just got done replanting everything, I have some of the moss attached to rocks, some to driftwood, I had a few holes in my driftwood that I have poked some plants into, have a nice area of the grassy looking plant (I think its vals, I already had a few and added the ones you sent so its a cool looking area of the tank).
Was the big plant an Amazon Sword? If so that and a red wendtii crypt that I already had are the biggest plants in there at the moment. I did have another Amazon Sword but moved it to the 29G with the pair of angels (they use it for laying their eggs on).
Anyways, enough rambling, yup completely happy, thanks.......... I am half wishing I had ordered a BN pleco along with the plants, might still order one or two after I look into it a bit more.
And to anyone reading and wondering about real plants, GO FOR IT!! haha seriously, even though my tank has a bunch of small plants and its something else to worry about and watch closely for growth, its well worth the natural look and the fish love it (my angel pair only spawned after I put in an Amazon Sword).
Thanks again Mgamer.

Extinct? Since when?
You could post some pictures and let us ID them. In my tank, my fastest plants grow about 3 inches a week. My Java moss doubles in volume every month or so, which is when I trim it. I just got a Corkscrew Val A while ago, so I don't know how fast it grows yet. I diffuse 2 Liters of DIY CO2 in a Hagen Ladder, with 2.0 WPG. Better yet, you could take a full tank shot and I will go to Paint and circle the ones I can ID and let you know what they are.
Just thought I would post an update, I had a few plants melt, but now most of them are showing a really good amount of growth. I am not sure what a bunch of them are, but they are growing, and thats good with me
Golden! Let's see some updated tank shots
I'm relieved to hear that your Angel's behavior seems to be due to love interest in a different tank.The grass is always greener....

I will eventually take some more shots (might even have some I can upload now to my thread in the gallery)............. the angels behavior is somewhat amusing, I had thought about switching the males around, the current male with the female is being an abusive husband!
