  • New Guy

    Im fairly new to fish keeping but already addicted. I have a 12 gallon planted tank and now working on a 20 gallon planted tank. Im 16 so money is short and I spread it thin around other hobbies. Other hobbies include being a huge Houston pro-sports fan, I play basketball and lacrosse, scuba dive, fish and now I keep fish.  
    12 gallon with bio-filter





    Fish:
    7 Cardinal tetras
    4 Red skirt tetras
    1 Blue Ram

        Welcome to the insane asylum.
        You don't have to be crazy to spend this much time and money on an aquarium, but it helps.
        'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust ...'
        He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'

                      What are the facts? Again and again and again--what are the facts? Shun wishful thinking, ignore devine revelation, forget what "the stars foretell", avoid opinion, care not what the neighbors think, never mind the unguessable "verdict of history"--what are the facts, and to how many decimal places? You pilot always into an unknown future; facts are your only clue.

                        Do you do any ferts or CO2 on your tank? It looks great!

                            I set this tank up early June but most of the plants didnt start growing a lot until recently. The big plant in the back I got at Petco for 4 bucks. I thought that was a deal. The fish are from Fish Gallery. I use root tabs and liquid ferts to keep the plants healthy.
