Travis Simonson is the planted african reef lake cichlid master. I believe he was one of the first to do a fully planted tank with africans.

And lucky for you, he is a moderator and frequent poster here.

CCTV Has shut its doors. Off the air.
5.5 gal ADA rimless cube, fully planted, killifish breeder. coming soon to a forum near you.
It's called Sex Panther, by Odeon. Illegal in 9 countries. Yep, it's made with bits of real panther, so you know it's good.
