Hi everyone,

It's been a while since I've posted here, been studying for Doctoral prelims. I have some pictures of my planted tanks I'd like to share.

15g Planted: 3.73WPG, Co2 injection, EI fertilization (Limnophila indica, Myriophyllum aquaticum, Rotala rotundifolia, Rotala macrandra, Egeria najas, Glossostigma elatinoides, Alternanthera reineckii, Lemna minor, Cryptocryne wendtii red, Cryptocryne willisii or parva). Fish: 8 Rasbora heteromorpha, 7 Corydoras pygmaeus, 4 Colisa sota.









I hope you enjoy. Let me know what you think. Thanks for looking.

Warmest,

:wow: Beautiful tanks, I hope mine comes out 1/2 as good!

Thats exellent! :kewl:

:drool1: Awesome tank!!!

Thanks.

They are not the best tanks, but I'm pretty proud of them. I'm dismantling them for a move in May. All the plants will be preserved and send them to a 36g that is waiting in Miami, FL.

These tanks were set up last year.

Again :thanks:

beautiful tanks great job.:)

Ive seen them on TFF before, last week I think. They look great! I wish I could some of the plants you have in your 15g. Theres some nice colours and textures there! Well done! :woo:

What's the WPG in your tank Mr. Miagi? The A. reineckii does well in moderate lighting, it just won't be as red, or you'll get the green leaves with magenta underside rather than completely red, which is what I'm starting to get. The R. macrandra does need bright light, but R. rotundifolia will give even low light tanks nice a nice pinkish color, especially in the tops of the plants. Crypts will turn reddish with just iron supplementation.

Yeah, I tend to float around a few forums, more now than before, now that I have more experience. There are a few plant specific forums that I'm also a member of. I PM'ed the plant moderator here, but I haven't heard from her yet. I'd like to contribute a few profiles like I'm doing for TFF, but I don't want to step on anybody's toes.

Thanks for the complement, but I wouldn't complain about your tank Mr. Miagi, I absolutely love yours and I bet you have a lot less headaches than I do! If I'm remembering correctly, you have a low-tech setup and I'd definitely like one of those when I return to Miami. I don't think I can handle two high-tech setups! Too much! Especially if I plan a SW nano soon.

By the way, I LOVE YOUR AVITAR HERE!!! Great stuff!

Nice tanks xD
CUTE DOGGY XD

Thanks alot for your complements on my tank llj. I dont think mine is a good as yours though. Because ive only got 1wpg, red plants dont do well. I doint run CO2 either. Ohwel, im improving my lights after I improve them for my marine tank! :bitchslap:

Your in luck, Im plant moderaotr now, and the caretaker for the profiles too! :drunk: Im sure your more than capable of handling plant profiles for us! That would be great help to our profiles section! Thanks llj.

:congrats:

Your Tank has made it into our Hall Of Fame!
