I was wondering why my tanks don't look as good as yours...I need blyxa. That's the answer! Seriously, awesome tank. Love it.

Wow, thanks everyone.
Bud, if you want some, lemme know. I promised some to Alisha, but once she gets hers, I can put you next in line. It grows really quick, but does need higher lighting.

2x54w T5HO 6000k for now on a 55g. Will be 10000k on one this weekend. Good enough, or am I still lacking?

You could certainly try it out. Would only be like $7 to ship it. I'd say that would be fine.

It will be about 2 weeks or so I'd say. I might have enough for both of you if it keeps up this growth. I just sent 5 plants that could be separated in to 12-13 this past wednesday and it's already filled in that much.

Excellent. Great growth. Wow. If you think I need to do more with lighting, let me know. I'm all for it. Just trying to stay below having algae issues.

Thanks
Got some plants in today (and a few other things including some chili rasboras and RCS... for another tank). Giant hairgrass is what went in here. It's not positioned how I want it, but I had to cut it up as it was basically one large mat. I'd say in a couple weeks, I'll be able to get it how I want it.

Tank ADD kicked in, yet again. Here is the result:
And, the plants that I pulled out:
And, just for kicks and giggles... the Chili Rasboras that I got for my other tank. BTW, this tank is a disaster. BBA on the glass, GSA everywhere, it's just a nightmare. But, it does have 9 cool fish in it:
