Zev Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Wow, that is an awesome looking tank! Looks really mature too, how long have you been running it for? Those plants look really well established. **EDIT** I see what you mean about snails! lol This tank has been running for about a year in it's current configuration. Here it is when it was a bit younger, and you can see the fish. And we won't talk about the snails, except to say that if you don't want them in your tank, make sure you dose your plants with Potassium permanginate before you put them in your tank!

Zev Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Yep, Stargrass. It is actually a light green, not a washed out looking yellow, the MH light is a bit bright for the camera to handle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zev have you been letting your fish listen to the Village People :lol: :lol: And does that "grass" cover the entire bottom of your tank and do you still have to vacuum? Take care & have fun, Caper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
