Very beautiful!!! Have you not got the driftwood to sink? It looks awesome!

Thanks!!

That baby is buoyant!! I lifted the rocks last night and the wood started back to the surface. I'll try in another month to see if it settles yet.

I am trying to get my lighting figured out though. I was wanting to go planted in the 140, which required more lighting than I currently had.

Got in some java narrow leaf and wide leaf ferns and foxtail and moneywort (sp??)

Hopefully the will make it with the mere 192 watts of light I have cranking into the tank.

EDIT

Mine aren't much to look at just yet, but hopefully they'll be soon :D

BTW... fishman post some pics of the 180 while it was fully planted :hehe:

The 10 gallon before it became the fry tank (pre 33 gallon)

The 33 gallon - over grown and needing a trimming bad (at least if they stay in this tank which I plan to move the bigger ones to the 90)

The 90 gallon - recently moved it across the living room and am in the process of setting it back up

Here, we have a very, very, very small 29G little tank.

Back home, I had a 30G and a 240G (no pictures unfortunately). Looking forward to kicking it all back up again!!! :)

Your setup is awesome Brandy

Probably meant a 300G.
I wouldn't mind having a tank around 150G maybe 200G but beyond that...to much space to plant. LOL

I think anything over say 150 = cichlid/low maintenance tank ;)

That would be a Million dollar planted tank! I tried my 100 gallon and the chemicals killed me!
