So very nice! Found out that my light isn't strong enough to maintain planted right now. But soon, I hope. I'll just keep looking at your pictures & others. Lol

The lady at Petco recommended that one as well. I'm look into it this weekend. For now, its working bc it's not even half stocked yet. Thank you all for your help, I greatly appreciate all of the advice!

The AC70 came with the setup. I was told that I could get another & just run both. I don't have any experience with the canisters- I've heard they are great but a pain to clean lol. I'm learning that this is an expensive hobby to love. And I thought it would be less then my use to be addition...

The tank is a little over 2ft

That's where I go as well- costumer service is wonderful! There's Triangle Tropical Fish in Durham. I was told they were good. Its been years since I've been there.

Hey, you & I are in search of the same- low tech planted tank. Hope your journey hours well. You're in Chapel Hill & I'm in the RTP area!

Would it help to just upgrade the bulb itself? If so, what kind would I need to get. Thank you so much

The bulb says natural daylight F30T8. If need be, I can replace it. I like the bamboo I saw in Petco but I've read so many reviews of them that I'm not sure I want to put it in my tank. I would love something that could be the background of the tank (besides the black background:-))

Hello, I want to incorporate some plants in my 75gal tall fresh water tank. I have all natural stone gravel, drift wood & rocks. I love the look of the heavy planted but I'm leaning more so toward light/medium planted. I have the aquaclear 70 filter & I'm not sure of the type of light (got...

I'm in the RTP area! I some plants in my 75g but I don't know what kind they are lol. When I had my 55g (donated to the church) I had a guy to maintain it for me, so he actually came out & did the initial setup for me. I'm wanting some color in the tank besides just within the fish. I'm going...

This looks great! Okay, we are about 3hrs away, my 75g needs a lot of attention after seeing your lovely setup!

GORGEOUS- I love the colors in the tank!

Really nice

I just finished setting up the exchanged AC70 & verdict is: THIS ONE IS A LOT QUIETER! Still not 100% silent but I'm going to give it a couple of weeks. I spend so much money at Petco grooming my dog, they know me by name so the manger said if its a little over the 30 days, he'll still exchange...

Big box for such a small impeller
