One tank is never enough.

Various crypts, hygrophilia, blyxa japonica, java fern, anubias, various aponogetons, red tiger lotus, giant and thin valisneria.

Advice:
Go easy on the lighting in your set up unless you want an algae tank. When you feel the need for 'just one more fish', be strong and say no. Get to know the people at your local fish shops and spend your dollar there, not Walmart etc.
Description:
This is version 2 of my original planted tank, designed rather than evolved by accident. It's been running for 8 weeks now, the stem plant growth is out of control. I've used pool filter sand at the front, the cories seem to like it, red jasper rocks keep it seperate from the eco at the back.

About Yourself:
I have fallen in love with discus.
Fish Kept:
Discus, Tiger Pleco (L-02), Harlequin Rasbora, Koi Angel, Bronze Cory
Corals/Plants:
sorry im unsure of plants names
Tank Size:
33 gallons
Advice:
Though i love landscaped tanks with sand etc I have chosen for no gravel / sand in my take to ensure the best water quality possible as im obsessed with discus. Since removing the sand i am actually very happy with the overall look.Tank cleaning has been massivley reduced also. In less than 15 mins i can change 30% water and have a quick tidy of the filter.
Description:
I have aimed for as true to nature as possible with the space that's available.
My love for discus is clearly seen in the pics.
