Hey everyone! Just moved at got my new tank setup and figured I would share it with all of you! It is a 29 gallon long tank with a penguin 150 filter. Currently running two lights simply for aesthetics but only use one to grow the plants! The terrain is made of black gravel/sand and large lava rock! Then I added a piece of driftwood for a tunnel effect. Plants I have currently are wisteria, Anubis, sword, and Marimo balls! Fish include: 3 black Molly’s, 1 granite Molly, 8 neon tetras, and a few molly babies!! Plus a few nerite snails and 3 cherry shrimp! Curious to what other fish you think would look good in my tank!? Also any tips or advice for more plants! IMG_7352.jpgIMG_7353.jpgIMG_7354.jpgIMG_7355.jpg
 
Here are my water test kit samples! Ammonia is a little high due to replacing the filter pads but other than that it looks good!IMG_7359.jpg
 
Very nice set up. Looks like you could easily attach more Anubias or java fern on your driftwood. As for fish, a small grouping of dwarf ram cichlids would likely do well.
