Default My planted goldfish tank:

I figured it was about time I introduced myself and showed you my tank.

I tried several years ago to do a high light planted tank and failed miserably -I had greenwater, algae and everything else but plant growth. I went to saltwater but that bug for a fw tank kept nagging me.

I decided to go the complete opposite extreme - a low light goldfish tank..how much easier than that can you get??

Here is my tank 6 months after setting it up. I really need to change a bulb -the color is way too yellow for my liking.

"]

And here is a shot of one of the residents that lives with my goldfish:



I'm quite happy with the growth I'm getting in this tank and the goldfish are pretty good about not tearing up too much. They did chow down on a couple of plants I bought but I now know not to buy those again (unless I want to feed my goldfish)

I'm also starting a little 5 gallon hex tank with a couple of guppies. I'm looking for the following plants does anyone happen to have them for sale or know where I can purchase them reasonably (online or locally). I live in Gainesville so don't mind ordering online as it's just as cheap when gas is considered!

Pennywort
Bolbitus
Lobelia Cardinalis
Red Melon Sword
Wisteria
Nymphaea Zenkeri
