Really nice colors and i love that you have a huge school of neons/cardinals. I forget, are you running all midday bulbs in that fixture or is there a aquaflora in the mix?

Oh, whoops. I've been looking foa plant like that for my skyscraper tank. I swear its the tallest 45 ever

 

[MMantelli]

Tanks looking great man its really filling in nicely.

 

[Rivercats]

Brian he has 3 Midday bulbs and 1 Aquaflora bulb.

Dino the tank has really filled in nicely! The plants are also coloring well so I'd say you've got this planted tank thing down pat!

Those would be Alternanthera reineckii.

Alright! That's the same plant I have. I see that the lower section being green IS normal after all.
