Okay, my journey now starts to my project of a 20 gallon long high tech planted tank with fish. I currently have a 55 gallon planted tank, but am converting it to a Cichlid tank very soon. I have the 55 in my room and I am wanting the 20 long in my room also. Not much room for a bigger tank. Currently being in College, things are happening at a slow pace with the tank but I'm alright with it. Gives me something to do.

Bought a 29 gallon for $15 thinking I would like it, but I still wanted a 20 long so I am getting one today.
Tank: 20 gallon long
Lighting: 30" Finnex Fugeray with moonlights.
Filter: HOB Whisper 20-Will add power head also.
Co2 System: DIY Paintball Co2 System. Bought bubble checker, Co2 Diffuser, co2 drop checker.
Eco-Complete mixed with Fluorite black (all they had at the time)
Homemade Stand
Pictures of progress:

New Filter!
Unboxing!
1/1/14
Put in the new Stand I built!
Finally got my Co2 Tank filled and installed my DIY Paintball Co2
Also added some new plants! Some Star grass and Telanthera Cardinalis
Will add more pics soon! More coming in slowly! Going to carpet with DHG very soon by the end of this week. Also have some ferts coming in from NicolG! Excited!
DHG Came in.

1/24/14 More DHG came in! Even more to come next week, also some rotala and limnophila aromatica coming in next week too!
Put Danios in there to help the Tetrasafe cycle the tank. I'm pretty sure it is cycled by now though. Will be adding my Harlequin Rasboras in probably by mid next week to make sure everything is okay!
