20g *Needs better title*
 

Heyhey guys! So well my 29 gallon busted, so the next day I got a 20 gallon long! Ripped off the top rim and put all the stuff From the 29 gallon in and it's on it's way! I'm growing everything emmersed right now, so I can get a nice hc foreground from the start. Here's a picture of the progress thus far. I'll take some better Pictures tonight. http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/...psfb0e3337.jpg

looking forward to the pics

Well here'd be that update I talked about months ago.... heh heh.

Plants grew very well! As you can see: http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/...i/100_1135.jpg





BUUUUUUUT I decided I did not like the sticks or the limnophila aromatica. I felt as if the leaf size was going to throw off the scale of the whole scape so this is what I have now. I'm really looking forward to what the tank will look like fully grown in and submerged! I just clipped the plants and spread the cutting around in the areas left bare from the removal of the L. aromatica. So now it'll be another couple months before I flood it. :/ OH well! Here's it atm.

Nice start, I'd remove that excess water you have that is kind of puddling in the front as soon as you can, otherwise, it is a breeding ground for bad stuffs.

p.s., im also doing a dry start, click the link in my sig. :)

wow, thats a big change. :)
im looking forward to the flood.

I thought someone would mention the water! I drained it a short while after the photos were taken.

Does anyone know about adding ferts to the misting water? I'm going to try adding a little bit to the next misting. ! :D

I'm going to try to post weekly pics from now on so I (and you guys!) can observe the growth :D

The tank is being filled as I speak!

Sorry it looks very bad. My screen on my camera broke so I just have to guess if the picture is good. This is right before I started filling! I should be done by tonight! http://i1212.photobucket.com/albums/...ps43c5db87.jpg

looking good.
what plants are in there?

Thanks! It's just R. Green, R. Colorata, and HC (and java moss growing randomly on rocks)

Nice start to the dry start.

It's flooded! I PROMISE this time to post weekly! I really am happy about this though! :D And again these pictures were taken with a camera without a working screen! I bumped up the CO2 waaay past what would be acceptable with fish and added lots of ferts. Let's hope this turns out great!
