Aquascape

[caitlynnanne9189]

Just wanted some opinions on my aqua scape and lighting. Here are some pics

I also was thinking of taking out the turtle in the middle and putting it back in my 3 gallon. I bought an air pump for my angels filter and for when I'm done with it I bought a Skelton that's his rum jar fills up and he drinks it I think I'm gonna put in place of the turtle? Opinions

Also lighting! I hate the lighting hood that came with this tank. My 3 gallon is an led lit hood and I love it do much! Is there an option to do that for this tank? It's a 20 gallon tank?

Thanks for all the help!

No opinions?

Its looking good, but I think an LED fixture would make it look a lot better considering your current light has a yellow tinge to it.
I am all for making a tank look as natural as possible so I think green plastic plants would be better with some natural gravel, although what you have now provides hiding places and some cover.

Do you know what kind of led light I could look for? I'm really not thrilled with the lighting. I love a natural tank and I like bright colors and I was fighting to keep a balance but when I saw the colorful plants I couldn't resist. I love color and my fish I will have are minimal on color

what size tank is it? And what lights came with it?

just saw your profile, its a 20 gallon with most likely 1 T8 bulb?
The actual bulb is most likely the problem, go for a good quality bright white bulb to show the true colours of the plants. You could get rid of the light all together and replace it with a LED fixture.

Ok a better bulb. I'm gonna look into that cuz right now I hate that bulb. It's what came with the tank. I'm honestly not sure about the current bulb but in gonna look into a better one. This one is only like 2 inches long. Fingers crossed for a better one!
