Top 21 - 30 Planted Tanks 2006

Rated #21: 75 Gallons Planted Tank

Rated #21: 75 Gallons Planted Tank - I changed my tank around and put more plants in. I focused more on putting the taller plants in the back and the shorter in the front. I also got rid of those damn prolific kribs. It looks a thousand times better than it did before, especially with the red plants i put in to contrast the green.

About Yourself: Always loved the hobby. Got serious about it 4 years ago. I mainly keep discus, I have 9 at the moment. 2 are in my planted tank. The others are in a 55-gallon grow out tank and my first and oldest, witch I nicknamed killer is in a 10-gallon tank. He is one very aggressive discus. I have been keeping plants for about 3 years and injecting co2 for 6 months. I will never go back to plastic plants again.
