Comments on my 55 gallon

by zambize

Click reply to see my planted 55 gallon tank. It's fairly new, established in March, with the plants being newer...some as new as this week.....lol, so it isn't looking mature yet. But I still welcome any comments for improvements to this tank or ways to do it better next time. The photo came out a bit washed out, and of course the inhabitants won't be still. Fish include 1 angelfish, 3 pearl gourami, 7 tiger barbs, 4 emerald green corycats, 2 yo-yo loaches, 5 otocinclus, and a large school of neon tetras. I just added pressurized CO2 and I feed the plants twice a week as well as adding iron and potassium. The plants were really suffering until I added the CO2 about 2 weeks ago, they seem to be rebounding.

I love it! I think when the plants fill out a little bit more it'll be perfect. That branch is well placed and adds a nice touch. Is this your first time using pressurized co2?

Yes, my first foray into pressurized CO2....what a bugger to hook up.
