Feel free to discuss entered tanks here, rather than the entry thread.

Here's my 20g long cory/RCS tank. Opinions? Suggestions?

Needs some lampeyes in

 

[eaglesaquarium]

No.  T. hengeli. 
 
 
I'm glad to see this thread getting a bit of use.  Hopefully this works for folks.

All right ... I get it. But this is for TOTM, right??

I think it needs one of those obnoxious bubbling treasure chests in the left front corner.

 

[eaglesaquarium]

"My bubbles."

 

[frapadoodle]

"My bubbles."

Exactly!

Seriously, what about some cabomba in the back middle right along the glass? 

 

[This Old Spouse]

That would be great! Except I must work with what I have until the tourists come back to pay me. 
 
I just looked over at it to imagine the cabomba, and there's a RCS that's practically glowing, it's so red!

Some vallis in back left corner would look really good too.  I like the look of your tank alot.  I had that same thing happen this evening with the bright red shrimp just suddenly "there" .  LOL  Didn't realize I had any in my shrimp tank quite that red.
 
Here is my entry for this month
 

 
 
I really should have waited until I had more plants and taped a piece of construction paper on the back but decided to go ahead and enter it "as is" since I wasn't sure I would get it finished in time for the ending date.

You've got nearly a month before the voting starts...

LOL  I know but since I am not working at the moment -- hard to say when I will be able to get plants.  Plus it does have this serene "clean" look to it at the moment.    I also tend to "forget" deadlines. A LOT.
