Hi guys,

I haven't posted a picture since I got my new guppies (see blur on left!), their fry (see spots on top!), and things settled in a little. As you can see I have a lot to learn about tank photography. As far as plants go, I'm still waiting to see what plants are happy here so the selection is pretty mixed. So far the hygro corymbosa is the happiest, the wednti went through a rebellion but bounced back, and the java moss just makes me laugh because it looks like my rock is wearing a toupee. Let me know what you think.

My first tank! Yay!

Heidi

Cool looking tank you got there.I think if you put a bright green stem plant in the back center like a diandri or something similiar would be cool.

Thanks guys!

Hey Greens, I looked up that plant and I like it a lot. And I think I agree about the spot, too. It'll hide the filter!

Thanks for the props. Here's an update. I ditched the toupee. Still looking for a great plant for the back...

Filling in Nicely! How about a Leopard Sword--stays small and would add a nice touch. Not real easy to find though....I have some and like them a lot.....
