A few random pictures from the past week or so

A few pictures of my 20 long showing how an aquarium can look very different from different views; these are all of the same aquarium:
As for population - while only a 20 long it has something like 15 to 25 green neon tetra; 10 or so pymy cory; 3 true f1 a. nijjensi ---
how many fishes did you see in the pictures?

what is that plant in the last 2 shots on this post? I don't think I've ever seen it- it is amazing!
two different variance of crypt nurii rosen the first is 'pink' line the other is more common variety (it had no special name). I've not seen the pink line very often - i got it from someone in poland but he got out of plants and no longer has any. The non pink version is readily available pretty much anywhere just google crypt nurii rosen - there are two reliable sellers i know of one on etsy/ebay and one on scrapecrunch - burr40 - or you can wait 3 or 4 months and pm me and i should have a few then i can toss in the mail when the weather is more temperate. I'm about 4 hours from you....

Hum there is a third plant in that picture under the pink line is a green plant with odd patches of orange is pahang. I don't see those very often for sale not that i'm buying any - nice plant but a bit different.
They require some water hardness - they will grow well in my tap which is kh 3 gh 6 tds 140 but not in super soft tank tds 10.

Over time they will take over the aquarium (non-co2 thought co2 will make them grow even faster). I just gave away something like 20 plants when i thinned them out - they are also getting quite large should probably post an updated picture because they have double in size.

the hardness requirement might blow it for me, although I do have my tank with endlers and neocaridina harder with the Shrimp GH that i add there. It's only 10 gallons, though LOL
I don't remember atlanta having super soft water but then again when i lived down there i didn't keep fishes just - well not much didn't even have a chair.
depends on what you call "Atlanta"- further out can get harder- I know Gwinnett & Cobb counties have soft water. Not sure about Fulton (true Atlanta). Metro Atlanta covers dang near the whole mid- Northern chunk of the state now.
dekab county - did some work at emory for two years - hated atlanta left and never went back but for those two years atlanta rocked baseball and won the world series i believe - then i moved to boston a few years late and they won the world series.... i guess it was 95 they won. Maybe i should have stayed longer
I love Atlanta, but I'm way biased. I've been here since 1973 except for 3 years in the Army. Grew up in DeKalb County (Stone Mt), went to Clarkston high school, and have lived in Gwinnett, Fulton and Cobb - currently Cobb. Right across the line from the city- all the location and a lot less taxesdekab county - did some work at emory for two years - hated atlanta left and never went back but for those two years atlanta rocked baseball and won the world series i believe - then i moved to boston a few years late and they won the world series.... i guess it was 95 they won.

Well it is a life style thing - in Boston i spent nearly 20 years walking a minimum of 6 miles a day and in 'Atlanta' i spent all my time driving; 1/2 the time stuck in traffic when i wasn't near the university.I love Atlanta, but I'm way biased.
