Thanks for some inspiration

Fluval ebi everything is stock sans the substrate. It's floor dry.




20l about a month old plants haven't filled in completely. Aquaticlife t5 high output nylon screen blocking some light. Worked out great otherwise it would fry everything. Also a trickle of pressurized co2 mainly cause of the amount of light.




20t Dirt and shrimp and epiphytes

I have a two gal planted with some pond snails for a dwarf puffer I will be getting but I don't want to post pictures of that on the internet for all to see

You can check out my 25 planted on the link to my build thread if you want, also fort has some amazing planted tanks.

All of you guys have such nice tanks. I will post a pic of my one I did today. The water is cloudy because of when I planted all the plants will be clear in an hour or two

Your tanks look so lush!! In the middle pic is that the edge of a fluval spec 19L I see? I have just bought one for a dwarf puffer, do u have a heater in the space next to the sponge? Would love to see a pic pls?! Sorry for the blah if I'm mistaken.

This is a great thread, I too am about to get a dwarf puffer and am looking for some inspiration for a 5G planted tank...first attempt
at planting. What will u put your puffer in to keep him interested... I hear they get bored easily and need a tank to keep them curious with lots of spots for investigation!!

Lol well spotted, it is indeed a fluval spec. My mrs has just brought and had it only set up for about a week, heres a pic of it but most of the plants and stones have just been put in randomly, also heres a better pic if mine

Thank you! I am thinking about doing a similar set up for a 5 gal for a dwarf puffer..

To keep them interested, make sure you have lots of plants, some DW and rock that has caves and stuff he can investigate. I am going to be getting the 5 gal fluval spec another poster has

Lol, that's me!! I just bought one and thought I spotted the edge of one in someone's photo!! I think it's perfect for DP... Just can't find a suitable size of driftwood???!

Looks great, I would be v happy if mine looked like that....I may go for 'random placing' as I am over thinking it perhaps Yours looks like a jungle, my fav kind of tanks!
