Pittbully's planted tank journey

[tiger terror]

Do it! Do it!
Another nice size tank is a 30L or 33L. That's LONG not LITRES; just to be clear.
With shallow tanks you will be trimming frequently. 12" depth - 2" substrate...you will get the most out of your lighting.

A 30L or 33L would be the bee's knees!

I'm just starting a 20L. All this plant talk made me do it. I told the lady i was doing it for the GBR pair. Lol. Everyone's tanks look amazing. Does everyone think Co2 is the way to go?

As I I really enjoy my 20L(med/high tech),I have other medium/low tech tanks I enjoy just as much..pressurized co2 definitely opens alot of doors along with stronger lighting,an upgraded fert regime and nutrient rich substrates(not saying this can't be done with various sand types alone)..

I'm using an led, flourish, Excell, flavor plant micro nutrient first. That's it. I'm thinking of trying dry first mixed in Clay and depositing Lil balls of the mixture all around the substrate.

30 longs are pretty sweet but a 40 long would be better!

Yes,yes a 40L would be better...I think with Pitt setting up a new 40L he'd most definitely be setting the bar for others...

40L would require a new fixture....bml...lol. The 30L sounds nice, what are the specs for those? I considering the 20L since I've already have the 2 planted +s. You ppl are to nice and have motivated me to start taking better care of my tank and get more involved in our hobby. So thank you. I have a large sheet of glass and been thinking about making a custom tank. What do yall think of these dimensions 30in x 14in x 16in? Also I met a Discus breeder today at my second job who said he would hook me up. Another possibility? Discus and CO2; now let the controversy being.

I agree. The 33L has a great foot print for planted tanks and is shallow enough to grow most things, making it easier to work with/in as well. I saw one for the first at a LFS about a week ago and now I'm dying to get one!
