Wow, Mikaila, just wow! Beautiful fish, beautiful plants all together in a wonderful setup!

Hey, what is your pH in Hudson? I think my pH is too high for my plants but I am not sure?

Also, any pointers that you can give me? As my plants are not doing well? lol

Wonderful video, fish, and tank! I love the fade transitions and music, they really added a lot to the presentation of the tank.

Heres a few pics. I don't really have a aquascape going.... My main attempt is always to see how many plants I can fit into a tank but still allow room for fish to swim. The right side is pretty open as I pulled up a ton of crypts for a auction. The vals I bought at the auction and they are still settling in.

Any idea on what fish I should add? I hope to get some GB rams, I now have none as the one in the video died a few days ago . This tank crashed about 7 months ago, I lost half my fish right away. My five rams "survived" it, but were exposed to ~5ppm of nitrite. They along with some other fish that survived have been slowly dieing from nitrite poisoning. That ram was the last one left. Other than the GB rams, I don't know what else to add.

Wow, Mikaila, just wow! Beautiful fish, beautiful plants all together in a wonderful setup!

pH here is 7.6 out of the tap and usually around 7.2 in the tank. I'm not sure what your are running, so don't really know what advice to give you. Give me a few days and I will look at some of your threads, or send me a PM with the problems you are having. pH may be a issue depending on what you are growing. I know around here H. polysperma, Crypts, vals, swords, and a few other things to well with the hard waters and higher pH. If you need plants let me know. In winter everything is free. Since I can't ship it I have to throw it.
