My planted tank

My tank is getting to where I want it. Still trying out new plants, but have found some good backbone plants to work with, the best of which is Hygrophila corymbosa "compact", also like Cryptocoryne wendtii, any Anabiias, and Aponogeton ulvaceus grows like mad.

Nice tank!

What the specs? Gallons, lighting, co2...etc....

35 gal, with 2 24inch lights, one sun-glo one aqua-glo, yeast generator for co2 canister filter set up to run for over one year without cleaning, lake Huron sand/gravel, still trying out different plants.
