Looks like a good start. How long has it been running. Also you might want to chuck that glass heater. The last one I had for a month broke inside the tank for some reason and blew the breakers. Just a heads up for you. Beside the heater the tank looks Great.

Thanks. Its been setup for about...7 months now. What other kind of heater is there? Nothing is really showing really good growth rates except my frogspawn in the middle. why is that?

There are a few companies that make titanium heaters. They're almost unbreakable.

The FS in the middle might be growing more than the rest because it's getting more light. Care to post your equipment specs?
