Hey guys! I think it would be cool if everyone can show off their planted tank!

 

[Sk3lly]

[tony_540]

[Sk3lly]

Its not about winning. Its about being happy with our tanks. Theres people on here with truly stunning tanks

 

[tony_540]

Haha true but I ment you have one of the best tanks I have seen, I wish I could have a tank like that one day

This is my first ever aquarium and it was set up last october. Reading/research is the key, closely followed by patience and all tied up with money lol

Dang you must have spent a lot of money on fertilizer haha

This is my first attempt at a planted tank. Only got is finished tonight. Hoping the water will clear up soon.

All your tanks look great.

Fertiliser is cheap when you go dry ferts. I got a progression thread in the planted. Its only recent maybe 3 weeks. Might give you more of an idea whats involved

Nice plants tommy. Never been a fan of coloured gravel though

Mine is new too, I plan on growing my plants and later putting them in my 10g, right now my planted tank is a 3G betta tank I add API co2 booster, leaf zone, and root tabs

Me neither sk3lly but my lack of patience got the better of me and it was all I had in the house.
I will change it bit by bit hopefully if the patience kicks in!!!

I was a bit nervous doing the planted thing so I did it in a 15 gallon I had lying around. If all works out I'll go fully planted in my 40 gallon.

I'm just adding liquid co2 daily. And liquid frets weekly. I have miracle gro substrate so hopefully all will work out. I would love to have them growing out of the top of the tank.

 

[tony_540]

Haha yea me too, I wanna be able to make more plants out of what I have

 

[tommyk]

That's what I'm hoping for too. Although I got some great deals from a guy on a local forum he send me loads of really healthy plants at very reasonable prices

 

[tony_540]

That's cool! I hope my plants keep growing

 

[tommyk]

Ya me too. Looking forward to seeing some more pics of planted tanks

 

[tony_540]

Me too, hopefully people post them and how they got there

 

[tommyk]

Have you got the plants in long. Are you seeing any new growth, I'm obsessively counting leaves
Sad, I know !!
