show me your planted tank setups
 

so im taking the plunge, im going to convert my cube i think into a planted tank and would like to see what you’ve got and to find out if anyone locally is into planted tanks.

My 15g tall. 2x23 compact fluorescent, Hagen CO2 ladder. Haven't decided on a background yet.

Willow,

I have a great source for f/w plants. We'll have to go one of these days (preferably a Monday or Friday) if you're interested in saving $$. :razz:

Here was my moonlighting while it was up. It was a crude DIY job that I put up to test it out and it ended up staying for quite a few months until I saw some corrosion and pulled it down to build a "proper" one. Shortly thereafter I decided I needed a reef tank. Needless to say it's still on hold.

The only full tank show I was ever able to get with my camera. WTB new digital camera. :(

Why not go with a blue. It will realy offset the fish and plants in your tank. Or a black. Both of these will realy bring out the colours of your fish and plants.

Because the bulbs were 2 for $10. Maybe one day. :biggrin:

i think he means for the background

ya the background. But blue bulbs also bring out colours in your fish.

i said show me your "planted tanks" not tell me all about your damn blue bulbs.

You should have been more specific :razz: We salties are always about the equipment :wink:

j/k :biggrin:
