The finnex stingray is red blue white. Different number based on fixture length
Thanks TMaier...us snail people gotta stick together. LolGet pics and tank!
I like it. Nothing wrong with jungle.View attachment 296185 Ignore bags of gravel as I'm still giving time for old bacteria to colonize new substrate (Flourite) but here is my first attempt at a planted tank. I did try to organize it better and even make some hills out of substrate but the fact that I can't really reach the bottom made it nearly impossible and I gave up. I'll just say I'm going with the jungle look. I'm hoping the tall plants will settle in soon-- the vals are melting some and the wisteria is too short to see much in the photo. But overall I'm not ashamed of this as my first try at planted, and at converting an up and running tank without re-cycling. All the anubias I've had for a while but since changing to Flourite they've all put out new leaves which is kind of funny since they aren't really root feeders. Go, plants, go!

Thank you! [emoji4] Currently this tank has 5 white skirt tetras and 5 black skirt tetras, some of them long-finned and some standard finned, and a dwarf gourami.Nice!
What fish are those?

Yes, I forgot we follow each other lol...although this is the first time I saw the other tanks... I love your lights, are the blue/white lights overhead or airstone lighting?
