My Tank!

[Crossfire]

After weeks of cycling, I finally have set up my tank! Its a standard 20 gallon with silica sand substrate with a bit of gravel on top, a penguin 200 bio-wheel, marineland 150 heater, an aqueon deluxe hood with a T8 colormax lightbulb, and soon a moonlight. Plants are 1 Red Ludwigia, 1 Baby Tears, 1 Dwarf Baby Tears Mat, 1 Moss Ball, 2 Water Wisterias,1 Blyxa aubertii, and 3 Red Tiger Lotus. I have cleaned out my old 5 gallon tank and put my glofish Mr.Gucci M. Fishy into the tank, along with 2 otto's and 5 (I bought 4, but I discovered a 5th in the bag. Don't you love freebies? ) Cherry Shrimp. Its coming along nicely, I may add

Before:

After!

I'll be updating it in a few weeks, I still need to get neon tetras, sparkling gourami, and more glofish. I'm getting glofish so my one glofish has friends, but after they all die off I'll be getting DNRs. Thinking about either adding some blyxa japonica or some mylfoil. Plus my Tiger Lotus will be sprouting soon

That looks great! Massive improvement!
I love that piece of bogwood, Have you thought of tying a plant onto it such as Java Fern or Anubias?

I have thought of tying some java moss to it, would love to see my shrimp frolic in that. You can't see it in this picture, but the inside of the wood curves outwards and creates a little cave.. thats why i love that piece of wood too
