Some of you might remember that I was discouraged with my plants in my 40 gallon when the discus lived there. The increased temp and waste of the fish was after many months taking it's toll on the plants. I was not able to keep up with the tank with twice a week gravel vac and water changes. I made the discus there own bare bottom tank and went about reviving the 40 gallon tank. This tank needs a lot of growing in with the plants since I through out a lot of bad looking plants.
Hope you like it.

Oh yeah! It's gonna look sexy once the grass grows and the larger plants fill out. :)
 
Thanks for the comments everyone.


Sorry shrimpster97, no khuli in the tank. I think what you thought was a khuli is a Botia Angelicus.
 
nice tank , what's the temp now?

Is that echino osiris ? looks reddish .

I takes a while / patients to get a tank to the point of stability.

looks likes you're there :cool:
 
lucky62,
The temp in the tank is 76 degrees.
The plant is a Red Rubin (Echinodorus rubin)
