I am very excited over this project that I had already finished. I just wanted to share.
First, I had a 10 gallon tank that was fine, I had a few plants in it and they were doing well. I gave my 29 gallon to my brother for a while that had to upgrade from his 5 gallon to the 29 for his gold fish. I had moved on to a 120 gallon and didn't need my 29 at that point in time. I was also doing Saltwater in my 29 before I moved it to a 120. I did get rid of my saltwater, becoming to much of a hassle and expensive. I couldn't keep up with the cost.
So now he has given his gold fish to a guy with a big pound, and I got my 29 gallon back. So I decided to upgrade my 10 gallon to the 29. I had all the equipment (Expect the light) so why not?
So I moved my 10 gallon all over to the 29. I had a Fluval aquaclear 30 that I moved over, and because I have 3 of them, I put the marineland Emperor 400 pro filter. So filtration is not a problem.
With the extra baskets in the 400 filter I am putting ceramic rings that I had with my Salt Water tank. I bleached them and rinsed them of course, their still sitting in a bucket of fresh water right now with decelerator.
As of right now I only have a Marineland single bright light on my tank. I ordered this light: EVO Quad 30" Timer 6500K LED Aquarium Light Freshwater Plant Tetra Discus 36x 3W | eBay
I got 7 plants and 4 moss balls in my tank. All of which are low level lighting plants and not really the hard ones to care for. I am getting a background today for my tank to hid the filter backs and wires. My album has the new uploaded pictures of my tank.

The only fish I have in it are.
1. Sunburst Gourami
1. Dwarf Gourami
1. Glowlight Danio (He is a jerk and killed his other glowlight buddies).
2. Otocinclus's
1. Julii Cory Cat (I am going to get 2 more, I know they like to school).
All of my fish were from my 10 gallon, which I knew I needed to get them in a bigger tank. I moved the old filter over with the bio-rings already seeded, plus I put "PRIME" Bactria boost in. It's my third day and no fish loss, so I am happy. I am going to wait a few weeks and I will had a few more fish, not much more. Just a few more Julii Cats, and a school of Neon Tetra's. I am thinking Black Neon Tetra's!
