Another planted 20 gallon! (10 pics, 1.83MB) - Aquarium Advice

CaysE · 10-18-2006, 10:55 AM

Here are some new shots of my 20 gallon planted tank, with 5 Goo Obo gudgeons, 4 threadfin rainbows, 3 cherry red shrimp, 1 oto, and an army of ramshorn and physa snails. Plants are corkscrew val, bronze c.wendtii, java moss, l.repens, r.rotundifolia, wisteria, blyxa japonica, and a dwarf lily.

Very nice!

Very nice indeed!

Wow, I appreciate the praise everyone!

Just for giggles, here's a little history. I was given the tank by my aunt as seen in the next pic. The only fish in there is a clown loach.

After all the researching I did when I finally became interested, I realized the clown loach was too big, and I had planted tank envy from seeing so many beautiful setups that other people had. So I gave the loach to my LFS, tore down the tank and started over.

Thanks again everyone! All of the real gurus here and on other forums inspired me to make a lot of progress and learn so much.
