Hi I did a new tank design. I can't wait for my guppy fry to get bigger ! Now at this moment I have 3 plecos 1.5 inch each 2 adult guppies and about 24 guppy fry in a 26gallon bowfront ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1428560389.606575.jpg.actually I'm thinking I should angle the driftwood abit more but I will wait until next weeks vacuuming
 
I uprooted the plants by accident so I undid and replanted the whole tank I hope they will be okay. I used flourite red underneath my gravel and I bought some liquid plant food
 
I have a fluval c3 it's good for a 50g and my tank is 26g also I used the flourite gravel it supposed to help also (by breaking down and tuning waste into plant food?) but I do have another filter it's brand new u cycled it's a submersible fluval nano good for 15 gallons. Should I use that as well?
 
Okay maybe I will add it in a week or 2. Some of the guppy fry are still quite small and I don't want to make too much current for them. I can't wait to see what colors they will be. At the moment they are all plain still
 
I added the extra filtration but I'm rly hating the way I just moved some stuff around in the tank .. Next week I will re design again :/ whyy did I mess around w it !!!! So crappy ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1429335729.298141.jpgImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1429335749.465546.jpg
 
Looks natural. I found, like imacoolguy has too, lol, that i never really stop messing with my tanks. Youll find somethin you like. Then youll get an idea, and re-arrange. Ha ha. Or even more like me, youll be re-scaping and get an idea mid rescape. Rofl. Its a curse. But keep it up, looks good. Also more filtration never hurt a thing.

I changed the fake rock with a bubble wall instead. to make it more flowy. . Here's My final design I took the pic right after arranging it so very cloudy water ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1430078495.828621.jpg what do you think? ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1430078589.609549.jpg

Well I added some fluorite and gravel because when I was planting my new plants today my nice white sand got sprinkled with black dirt ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1437099704.567024.jpg
 
Already thinking of buying a 5lb bag or white sand and sprinkling it on top of all these colours lol
