    Thanks for the tip troy. Ptran that red plant is plastic, I'll be yanking that thing off here soon and replacing it with something else I can tie there.. maybe tie some java or flame moss to the log or drift woods high column. I'm hoping the swords do well since everything will get moved around and or clips from them will go to the 75 setup I have in the living room.

        Those swords will be huge. I used to have a sword pretty much filling 1/3 of my 40B.

          No not yet, it's sitting in the living room on its stand, empty. I can't wait to start setting it up but I'm holding off because it's going to be setup as a high tech tank with a ledge background and planted with mid to foreground species as I want the background to not be overwhelmed by the planting. I haven't even thought about fishes yet. Lighting most likely will be a Finnex Planted or a USA Satellite. Filter will be a Hydor 600 and it will be having some Co2 that I will be putting together from a aquatek reg. and a paintball tank. I'm working with a budget of $1000. And the wife already bought me the tank and stand at Petsmart. Listed as a combo for $399.00 she negotiated the price down $100.00 less. Gotta love a wife that supports your hobby.....live this woman....lol

                  Tank, stand (made out of real wood, not that particle board crap ), glass top and off the shelf led lighting.

                      I just want to make sure that I do the setup the right way the first time around with the right equipment that my budget will allow, been putting in some serious time researching and making notes on what works and what doesn't so that a why I'm playing around with the 10 gal first.

                        1K budget will come a long way. Can't wait to see it up and running.

                          I'm most likely going to fill up the 75 this weekend just to make sure it's properly leveled (if it ain't gonna have to figured out how to correct this before hand and I want to make sure that tanks integrity is okay as in no last minute surprises in the living room.

                              OK I've officially been bite by this bug...lol...today I added some dwarf saggitariousin the front some anackris I believe the name is in the back and some baby tears on the left and dosed with CO2 and replaced 50% water. I'm done planting for now and will let these take off for the 75. Also I ran out of space for planting but I think it's a nice starting variety.
