I've always loved the looks of a planted tank so I thought "what the heck" and decided to plant a couple of my own I started with a 10g Betta/Shrimp/Snail home that one is pretty heavily stocked with plants, perhaps a bit too crowded after the "mess o' plants" I just recieved from Jetajocky (Thank you! Best monies I ever spent!) I wish I had the time to sit and scape this sucker tonight but I have to work :/
I started with the original lights that came with your average box kit from Walmart, then upgraded to a Aqueon LED light and just recently modified the hood to hold 2 CFL's (as suggested) & LOVE the way the tank looks under them
I have been dosing Flourish Excel but that's about it for ferts.
Here is some before & after pics, I kinda just threw the majority of my new plants in the 10g for now, Sunday is my next day off and I will get to play with plants the whole day! Woot woot! Also included in the pics are the 20 & 29 with some plants, just floating the ones in the 20 for now. I promise my updated pics will reveal a much nicer scape haha!!
Also got some gorgeous plants from afishpond! Thank you too!!!
