Photo #1 - This Is My Planted Tank With African Dwarf Frogs ...

previous
29 gallons planted tank (mostly live plants and fish) - This is my planted tank with African Dwarf Frogs and Angelfish. Theres only one angelfish in there but I plan to add 3 more here soon. I used Flourite (made by Seachem) for the substrate and rocks I found down at the creek. Make sure that if you use rocks from a creek or stream that you clean them real good as not to get parasites in your tank. What I did was I scrubbed each rock thoroughly with a scrub brush. Then I soaked them in bleach water for 24 hours. I rinsed and re-scrubbed them with the scrub brush. Then I soaked them in freshwater for 24 hours. Then I rinsed and scrubbed them one last time before adding them to my tank. It was a hefty job and time consuming but they look great in my tank.
