typing outloud-- plant plans

[justintoxicated]

nice tank, im not having any luck with my micro sword, it grows only fast enough to not dye off...

It's the first one of my plants to get beard algae should I get an outbrake. I thought it woudl grow faster...Maybe I am doing something wrong.

I like your tank the way it is though! I have wisteria in the back of mine, only problem is that it wants to go imeadiatly under the light and will twist bend and grow to do so.

lauren, what are those fish u have in there?
are they rasboras? im a newbie so forgive my ignorance.

Yes, they are rasboras. I have 9 of them. The pictures are so out of date it's not even funny. I need my new camera!

alright, I think this is the shopping list for monday:
red tiger lotus (will 1 be enough?)
1/2 foot of micro sword
1 bunch of green cabomba (for space #3, because I like how the leaves look behind the lotus)
1 wendtii crypt (space #3)
2-3 small crypt (I don't know which yet, I'd like some with more of a bronze leaf to it)

I think that should make my tank just about perfect.
