That's an expensive treat for your eels. What do you usually feed your eels?

My dream tank would have eels, maybe peacock eels

They LOVE blood worms.... and ghost shrimp... Once cherry shrimp breed they multiply quick and there easy to breed

It looks nice! Live plants should work fine w/ 8,000k. Do you know how many wpg you have w/ the lights? If you're looking for suggestions on med-high light plants, I can't help you there, (I'm a low-light gal lol), but some other members on here can give you advice.

 

[dpfitness23]

Yeah i know moss is low light right?

 

[dpfitness23]

the lights are 8,000k... 120 volt...20watt...60hz... and i got 2 of them

 

[dpfitness23]

[allaboutfish]

From what I've heard, moss can grow in a shoebox. lol

Hmmm. That's what I had on my 55g and, when I decided to go planted, I upgraded to a T5 fixture, (per the advice from the members on here). I'll leave the lighting advice to someone that has more knowledge, but I don't think the plants will survive under a T8 fixture.

 

[allaboutfish]

[dpfitness23]

woah!!!!!!!!!! 40 watts on that size tank!!!
