Wasn't sure were to post this thread. But it's a planted tank so here sounds good. This guy will be a 29 gallon planted tank designed after a creek bank I came across while hiking in the woods behind my parents place. It'll be driftwood heavy with a few rock clusters and heavily planted. I've just finished the stand design and plan to drill the tank tomorrow. It'll have a 10 gallon sump.
As far as plants and fish here's what I've planned so far...
FISH:
10 x Rummynose tetra
4 x julii cory catfish
2 x german blue ram cichlids
Maybe a shrimp or two
PLANTS:
xmas moss
Dwarf baby tears
Oriental sword
Ludwigia needle leaf
Ludwigia peruensis
Hygrphilia
Cardinal plant
Water sprite
I apologize for the common names. Still learning the plants.
I'll be posting pictures over the next couple of days showing progress as well as the wood and rocks I plan to use. And of course any changing plans. I'm always up for suggestions and criticism. Thanks. Hope you all enjoy the thread as much as I will building the tank.
