Default Planted tank pictures...and lots of them

I decided to take some pictures of my planted tanks. I finally trimmed my 55g jungle...its been awhile. Some pictures aren't that clear, so excuse that. Here they are:

55g

i need to reorganize the plants in this tank...the Hygro is kind of taken over...but that is a plan for the future

And here are some of my other 2 planted tanks:

10g

this is just a plant cutting tank....will be redone soon

That surprises me Damon...mine grows like a weed. Sorry it won't grow for ya.



I love how it gets pinkish on the tops when it reaches the surface. Makes me like this plant.

Ugh...my lights make the tank look yellowish...must be the 6700K bulb. I think I need to get another 10000K.

Those are some really nice tanks! I can't wait to get started. I'm definitely going planted on this one.

Beautiful tank, what kind of lighting do you have and how do you like it? Im trying to figure out if I should go with CF or VHO in my 55.

Over all 3 tanks I have compact fluorescents. The 55g has 2x65w, the 29g has a single 65w, and the 10g has 2 screw in 20w bulbs.

I like the CF lighting. I have one 6700K bulb and one 10000K over the 55g. I actually think I want to replace the 6700K with another 10K because the tank looks kind of yellow/green. Other than that I'm really pleased with it.

Thanks for looking everyone!

Just one of those things I guess. I've tried bacopa of various species at least 15 times. Immediate dieoff and little regrowth before it melts completely. Who knows. May try it again once I figure it out.
