Hey all, here's a pic of my first real try at a planted tank. It's a 92G corner bow, much bigger than the pic looks, 4 ft across the front. It still has a little ways to go, a little clearing to do, a few more plants (I'm thinking of a couple anubias up front maybe) and it has yet to be stocked, really. The fish in it are pretty much for cycling. Can't wait til it's all done!!!

A nice beginning. I think maybe you could use quite a few more plants. Adding them while your tank is cycling is the perfect time as it will take up the ammonias and just start your plants and tank.

Very nice tank. I especially like the sword in the back corner. Maybe some crypts or other medium size plants to thicken up the mid-ground and a touch of foreground. I think a few mid-size guys around the volcano would look good.

Yup, that is definitley the plan. This tank will serve as a temp (1 or 2 day) holding for my 28 gal that we're tearing down to change substrate and decor. Once that's done, I'm thinking of some more red melon and microsword up front and some more crypt here and there. Also the bacopa is being cut and replanted in one or two places. Thanks for the input and suggestions!!

I think that some marisela (excuse my spelling) would be a nice foreground for this tank
