Morning shot of my mixed 210L community/planted tank. The Platy's are such little hogs (first to eat, last to share....lol).

Love it. Beautiful colors.

It's funny how they always look so hungry. Feed me

Btw what substrate are you using? The color is great.

My platy tank has a shelf under it that has all my fish, shrimp foods, supplies, medication, ferts, etc, so every time I go near it, they hound me like they are starving, regardless if they just ate. They are little piggies. lol.

Lol........yes, they could eat all day and all night. @ Sajacobs, the substrate is coarse textured PFS. It's great because it's heavy enough to gravel vac, but still looks like a fine sand. I picked up a 50lb bag of this stuff a couple of years ago for $10 or so. I got it at HD and the brand is quikrete.
