well i have had george in aalittle eclipse tank for almost 2 years now. it was only like 2 gallons and didnt allow him very much swimming room so i thought i would give him a fresh start. i had some spare eco complete from when i re did my 20 gal so i threw that in. i had an extra light from when i changed out the hoods on my 55 gal. and i had some extra plants growing so i thought why not. all that along with a little 5 gal, an penguin mini and an old heater and away i went lol. i dont have many plants right now since i just stripped my tank out for the re do. but i did have tond of moss and a little hygro polysperma to try. the light is an 18" 15 watt t-8 strip. it overhangs a little on each side but i am gonna say i have low lighting conditions at the least. i an gonna make something a little more permanant once the money allows. found some old rocks and tied some java and christmas moss to them. threw them in and i had to move over the old ornament from georges tanks cause he was soo used to hiding in it i didnt want to shock him. the move went smoothly and he is doin great. still not used to the current that the penguin is making but i hope he adapts soon. here is the tank so far. i am gonna look into some other low light plants untill i get a new light. then i was planning a carpet of HC and alot more moss.
the polysperma is a little beaten up casue it was in my cichlid tank.
