Just a quick update of my 125 gallon.

 

[Tex Gal]

Hey! I gotta tank named that too!!

Really, very nice. That's a lot of blyxa!

 

[derekp]

couple more...

 

[derekp]

LOL, the name just seems to work. The blyxa is my little weed, but I love it.

 

[Tex Gal]

Is that limo aromatica green? What is the red plant in the back?

 

[derekp]

Do you mean the red plant behind the blyxa by itself? If so, it is alteranthera reinecki, but I just got it in the mail so it is still growing funny. The aromatica is green until it hits the surface. I do not have quite enough light to turn it red, but I have a new light coming to me via ups, which will give me all the light I need. Along with I already have pressurized Co2.

 

[Tex Gal]

I thought that's what they were. You might consider adding extra iron. They can really use the iron. I dose extra with my csm+b every other day. If you have such an amazing foreground I think it's odd that your l. aromatica isn't red..... hmmmm.....?????

Beautiful tank! Tex is right, that's ALOTof Blyxa!

What is the small foreground plant on the right/center?

I do dose Iron, I just have to give them time. I don't know about the aromatica, I'm sure they will turn nice and red when I get my new light.

And that plant is elatine tiandra, I absolutely love the look of it.

I like teh elatine tiandra too. I just got some of it and planted it. All but 2 little plants melted. Those are growing. Hopefully I'll be able to get a nice stand of it!

 

[derekp]

Its a great plant if controlled. Good luck with yours.

I recently got some more boesemani rainbows. Now the count is up to 9. They are always doing their little spawning dance. Has anybody had any experience spawning them?

 

[jeepn4x4]

Great looking tank. I have never had my rainbows spawn but they are a fantastic looking fish.

 

[derekp]

Thank you. Ive had my turquoise rainbows spawn, but the fry were ridiculously hard to take care of.
