Quote: IF IT WAS THAT EASY, EVERYBODY WOULD BE DOING IT !!!
About Yourself: Been keeping fish for over 15 years. This is my first heavily planted tank. So far so good.
Fish Kept: 2 clown loaches, 1 river loach, 5 various cory's, 2 Oto Cat fish, 2 chinese algea eaters. 2 SAE, 3 white clouds, 3 giant danios, 4 zebra danio, 1 leopard danio, 3 rumy nose tetra. 6 neon tetras, 5 random tetras,2 serpae tetras, 2 flower shrimp, 5 ghost shrimp, 5 japonica shrimp,10 cherry shrimp, 41 fish, 22 shrimp
Corals/Plants: I dont know the names of all of them. Anubias nana, Rotalla, Crypts, Java moss, Java fern, Amazon swords, moneywort, Vallisneeria, sagiteria, floating plants,Dwarf hair grass, Red tiger lotus, Hygrophila, Bacopa, Drift wood I found at a river. Its actually all one piece.
Tank Size: 20 gallons
Advice: If you want 41 fish in a 20g tank, be prepared to work on it lots. If 1 fish dies dont panic. Fish die. It happens. If lots die you have a problem. Research your fish before you buy them. You need bottom feeders and algea eaters to help keep it clean. Most fish like to be kept in groups. Feed them a variety of foods. RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH. 25% water change once a week. You dont need to add tons chemicals. Plant food, amonia remover and cycle are all you need. Prune your plants it helps them grow.

Rated #380: 75 Gallons Planted Tank

Rated #380: 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.
