I'm beginning to think there is a link between planted tanks and riding. I've got an 06 zx-6r, but my new addiction is aquariums.

Great tank, by the way!

Nice bike. Back in the day, I had a 1994 CBR 600. It was black and purple. Enjoy the ride.

LoL, back in "the day" I rode a black & red 1988 CBR 1000F
(Yes, they made crotch rockets back then!)

And to keep this on topic... at that time I also had 6 planted tanks
in my house, the smallest of which was 70 gal.. wish I had that much
space in the house these days...

Thanks, everyone!

Despite my lack of posts, I am still here. I just took the bike in for its six-hundred mile service. Six-hundred miles in two weeks.

As a result of all this riding, my tanks have suffered considerably. I've forgotten to turn on the lights a few times, did not a single water change, and never even considered dosing. So the tanks look like crap.

On the plus-side, my bike looks awesome! Polished it two or three times in the week I've had it.
I'm also thinking I might start modding the thing. I'll probably start with a fender eliminator as the stock fender looks like of lame on a CBR.

Here's my advice to people not hyper-obsessive over planted tanks:
Go low light. It's easier. The one tank I have that is low light, Minikui Tensai, looks great.

Have fun on that bike, but be careful. My co-worker was parking his bike and got clipped by a big-rig. Cracked his helmet...and he got a concussion.

My other buddy has pins in his wrist from taking a turn to confidently.

I learned how to drive on a R6, and it is fun, but I don't think I'll get one.

Low light is great!

Awesome tank. I had never heard of UG (the plant not you lol) until i started looking at your threads. Looks very nice. I will one day have to try that plant out.

Beautiful bike although I'm not a huge fan of the two wheels option, unless in a controlled atmosphere (track). To many people I know 6ft deep right now from those. More so from the morons (general public) that we have the luxury to drive with everyday rather than them doing tricks, racing etc. I prefer the 4 wheel, roll cage, crash and walk away approach. Although that way is 100x more expensive.
