Guppy Grass

Thanks for sharing those. I lucked out and found a local person that has an overgrown tank that is giving me a bunch of his extras to see if I can get my tank going. Hopefully I will have a planted tank to show off in a week or two.

Here is a DIY CO2 setup I am currently using. It does not show the line entering into the HOB filter intake, just the generators and bubble counter:

I'm going to try it without CO2, and see how it goes, if I need it I'll do a DIY CO2 setup. I'm getting alot of ideas from seeing these. I want to go with river gravel for my cap, but what should I use under it? I was thinking of dirting it, but I like to change things around too much. What would be good to place under the gravel. I'm pulling out the old blue gravel I have in the tank now (Only about 2 inches worth). I'm picking up the plants this next weekend, so I want to get the substrate changed out this week. Thanks for the help and sugestions everyone

Well, I got my driftwood centerpiece into my tank today. I found this at the lake, pressure washed it with water, then boiled it before I put it in the tank. I still need to pull out the blue gravel and get my natural gravel in there, and I still havn't figured out what to use under the gravel for my plants, but I am thinking I may just go with java moss and some sort of tall plant to fill in some. I've gotten alot of ideas from here, now just have to see what I can find locally. Anyway, let me know what you think of it so far.
