Aren't these things passé or something now...don't see many of 'em...:tongue:
Anyhow, I've set it up and have been fishless cycling it with pure ammonia and Mosura BT-9 for about a week now while waiting for my manzanita to waterlog (still hasn't ). Ordered some easy moss/plants from h4n (thanks!). This is my first real planted tank after years of nano reefs...guess I figure I'd change it up a bit. :thumbsup:
My current stocking plans are some cherry shrimp, maybe some ramshorn snails, and possibly otos...keeping it simple.

Anyway, I just planted her up a little while ago, here she is!

Decent enough for a first scape? Comment/critism/(flaming?) welcome!
