Hi! This is my first post, I have spent the last few months on here "lurking" as a visitor gleaning as much knowledge from you fine people as I can and recently decided to take the plunge and register. So here is what I have going on. I currently have a Aqueon 26 gallon bowfront FW with fake plants, a castle, a cave and black and white aquarium gravel substrate. In this tank, I have 2 creamcicle lyretail mollies, 3 dalmation lyretail mollies, 2 orange balloon mollies, 5 zebra danios, 6 blackskirted tetras, 3 longfin black skirted tetras, 3 cardinal tetras, 1 male betta, 2 small plecos, 8 ghost shrimp, and one fiddler crab. Obviously, I am quite overstocked. Everyone is healthy and happy, but I feel disaster in the air if we don't get some more room soon. I have been looking at a 56 gal "column" tank at my LFS and I would like to set it up as a planted tank next to my 26 gal and water bridge it with shared filtration. I have never setup a planted tank before but I really wanted to go with a planted tank this time around and also wanted to incorporate a sandy open area in the new tank for my fish to enjoy. Times are tough so I dont want to break the bank on this project right now either. This is going to be a fluid work in progress and is really in the planning stages at this time so input is highly encouraged.
Thanks
