29 gallons planted tank (mostly live plants and fish) - This is what my tank looked like in january 2008, after my fish had eaten most of the newly added plants. I'm trying to get the remainign plants to grow, it's not really working though.

freshwater fish - carassius auratus - red ryukin goldfish stocking in 29 gallons tank - My orange veiltail goldfish, Hugo, he's pretty, isn't he :) Note that the plants are not jet eaten in this picture, though it was taken only a few days before the full tank shot was taken.
