My tank

I took a short video of my 55 gallon tank. I am running pressurized C02, and 2 eheim 2215 filters. Today I added 2 shrimp, 6 glowlight tetras, and 4 Harlequin rasboras.

As you can see I have a small breeder box that I have set up for a single guppy fry.. he seems pretty happy in there. I also have a bunch of guppies, a few platy's, neon tetra's, male betta, and an oto catfish. *and too many pond snails*

I am still pretty new to the planted tank hobby.. but so far I am really enjoying watching the plants grow, and the fish seem very happy to be able to hide and swim around the plants.

Any suggestions, comments, or concerns, please let me know. And thank you to everyone who has answered my many questions along the way.

I like it!
I like that round leafed plant and what appears to be a TOTAL lack of algae!....so jealous of that.
Also, really like the guppies. They are beautiful and underrated fish.

you shouldn't keep betta with guppies, he will eat their fins and in the end they will die.

They have been together for about 4 weeks now, haven't had any issues from the betta but I will keep an eye on it. Thanks for the observation.
