Can't find the store receipt from buying this. Thinking Balansae ?? Thanks !!

Thanks !! I should have a total of 8 pandas now. Wouldn't be bummed if there were eggs one day :)

I have Eco-complete in my 55. All the plants seem to love it. Just make sure you dose ferts or root tabs as appropriate. More a factor than the substrate in most cases

Would be the larger one there in the back. One of four new ones.

Plants have been doing great till the last few weeks. No major tank changes though. Seeing dark spots on the sword leaves, dark and curling leaves on some crypts. Pics attached. First planted tank so not a lot of experience to draw on

Oh yes!! Been using those since day one of planting and setting the tank up

Yeah can't say I have and any plant issues due to the lighting. Some random brown spots and a couple of thin leaves on one of the swords. Picked up a bottle of Seachem Trace and started that. Along with Excel when I remember it

Thanks !! Yeahs the been the plan for a few weeks lol

It's a 55g. Been working on it since Jan. At the moment I just have the generic Aqueon T5 light from petsmart. Nothing fancy

Also some moss balls are on the gameplan. Hard to see but do have a bit of Xmas moss growing on some mesh in the left side

It is narrow leaf micro sword if I remember correctly. Not getting a lot of runners or growth yet but not dying either lol Excuse the rummynose tails in the pic lol

Would you consider this low or medium planted ?

lax- thx love them. I already had a few bronze so I am glad they are as active as them. Makes a really active bottom of the tank betta - thanks I don't really remember lol. It was a big purchase yesterday. I got it in town at the Wet Spot here in Portland. Also seen it online various places /...
