Here's my first planted tank! It's a 20g long with 1betta, 5 neon tetras, 5 Rasbora's, two salt and pepper Cory's and a few zebra nerite snails.
Nice driftwood!
At first glance I thought this was a 12g long (on account of the shallow depth). Then I realized it was because of the substrate depth. How deep is it and what is in it?
The plant in the front right corner looks semi-aquatic at best. Can't recall the name but pet stores often pass it off as an aquatic aquarium plant. Keep an eye on it.
