      My Tanks

      So I thought you all might enjoy seeing my planted tanks. Some are fancier then others. Two I just re-landscaped yesterday.

      Okay so the first one is a new tank. It is a micro rasbora tank, soon I hope to add some Cherry shrimp or Christal reds to it. It needs a trimming I have been growing out the Val for a friend.



      Next it the Betta condo: This Bad Boy has two new residence I cute little 1/2 moon male (center) and a giant betta male! (on right) Plus the lovely lady on the left



      Then there is the 29g, which just got renovated! I moved most of the school of harlies (3 refused to be caught) to the 120 and added 5 new Rasbora and 4 Blue Rams. I am very excited about the new arrivals! I also donated allot of ricca out of this tank, what was left I sank to a ground cover. I hope it stays put.



      Last but Not Least! My 120g, which has has 2 angels joining my Gold angel last month, plus I moved 7 Harlies over yesterday, Plus a huge Anubias that was taking up all the room in the 29g moved to the right corner and I added my ricca bushes I have been growing out! I do thing this tank needs some more cardinals my school of 8 is just not enough to balance out the albinos ~40-50 corys, and the Rasbora population



      Hope you enjoy

      Looks great Jen!
      Look at all that val, like it.
      You really need a pic showing your heard of albino corys, that pic shows about a quarter of them from my memory.
      There's a fine line between owning your tank, and having your tank own you!_________________________________________

      I'll post some shots of mine with the new plants in about a month when the dirt settles. Nice looking tanks you got there, Jen. Now I see why you were laughing about me buying Vals.

      You know Jon, with my 75g FW planted tank in the mix my overall gallonage is up to 725g. It's a close race! Plus another 50g that is cooking Peter's rock.

      I just don't think you can count cooking rock into your water valume. that be like counting you water change holding capacity you may just have to face up to it dave, Jon is winning.

      and yes jon where is you FWP tank!

      I've lost better contests to lesser guys, so that's OK.

      Hey...Who's side are you on???

      Looking at your tanks, Jen, inspired me to do a little aquascaping on my 75g. I planted the stuff I just got and let me tell you, it was a real trick dealing with that micro sword carpet. I have some left. Anybody need any micro sword?
