Advice:
don't be intimidated by co2!
Description:
This is my first ever tank and I still have a lot to learn, and a lot to get the hang of (especially not over feeding as you can see with the snails.) The tank is about three months old at this point, and I still can't help but zone out and watch it for hours sometimes. CO2 really made everything explode and my cheap nicecrew light is treating me very well! I'm really proud of this and hope it looks as nice for you as it does to me! I can't wait to see this tank grow out even more and set up my next planted tank! kuhlis and shrimp have been my absolute favorite additions so far!
