I wanted to get y'alls opinions on these plants. I purchased them from Hobby Lobby and thought they would look great in the tank. I just didn't like the selection at the LFS.


Here is the plants I purchased for the 55g

Put this in the 30g. Hasn't been in there but 3 minutes and you can already see one of the little guys in there.:hehe:

Just be careful about putting in any in that might have metal wires in them.

well, imma tell ya, these have the wires but they are definitely stainless steel. I couldnt even cut them with my good side cutter pliers. Had to bend and snap them.

I think they will look great! I'm going to hit up Hobby Lobby for some soon. My 135 looks naked without greenery since I reset it.

Well, right now the greenery is 50% off through the 26th(?) at Hobby Lobby.

May be Michaels I'm thinking of going to. It's the one that's open on Sunday. The one that closes on Sunday wouldn't honor their ad when I went to buy greenery from them. They claimed everything I had was not part of the sale, even though I showed the manager the signs hung up where I got them. She said the vines weren't greenery. :confuzeld: Ended up not buying anything.

That's what I asked! I also asked why they had signage up if it didn't apply to the ones I was going to buy. She just looked at me like a deer facing an oncoming car.

Looks great. I like the choices you have. It's better to get a lot of the same plant than too many different plants and have it look scattered.

The fish love places to get into. My Krib loves to get into my wisteria and just hide.
