hi every one, my name is Adrian from Meixco city and i would like to introduce my planted tank´s evolution since last year, im not a pro but maybe someone may find usefull comments in here.
i want to say im sorry my poor english maybe is gonna make many people angry sorry sorry...!

Well the story begins since jun 2007 when i started a non planted acuarum but for a few echinodorus..without having an idea of what is a planted aquarium.


JUNE 2007


so nothing impressive but for me this was preety nices and mede me happy 4 a while.
JULY



ok ok i like plants, but when i first went to the little plants and fish market they sold me this and said, there u go "aquatic plants" have a nice day..... (cheaters!!)

AGOUST


this month i just realized by my friend ....that those were not aquatic plants.... so sad that was why they died on me.... those robbers from the market!! somehow i found a place where they had the "real" acuatic plants, so expensiveeee! i got it no pain no gain lol

SEPTEMBER


well, fake plants are going down so maybe this is the way a planted acuarium must be..hhmm i still dont know..


limnophilla sessiflora is one special plant that i like.

OCTOBER


finally i ´ve got my new lamp now light has been increased at 60%, no Co2 for now, and im under algae attack, hmmm i tried 4100K to the right and 10 000 to the left, this was a critical time for my tank under bba algae attack...



NOVEMBER


welcome KNO3 and CO2 bye bye algae and disc fish too .. happy but ...so sad
