bought tank from a buddy with all fish included, bought some plastic plants to "scape" it and through trial and error, the internet, and this site discovered REAL planted tanks. Started with 3 or 4 plants and a piece of driftwood and have been going from there ever since. Currently fighting BGA and a recent outbreak of BBA, oddly enough it started when I first began dosing excel??? Enjoy
