Added a powerjet to my 20Gal tank for circulation and put additional filter media in to remove the tannin. Working on iron/co2 levels, plants are doing fairly well. Planning to add more crypt spiralis in the back soon!

Just regular glofish tetras or what. I’m just curious. Yeah man get you some and have fun. If your new, which your probably not because of how awesome the tank looks, I would get some kind of bottom feeder and a top feeder. I wouldn’t get a regular pleco because they get up to a foot long.

The ones in the tank are glofish tetras which I plan to get a few more of. Also plan to get a school of harlequin rasporas in there in the not too distant future

I used to have an awesome and huge apple shell snail but lost him during a bacterial bloom that happened when a fish got trapped where I couldn’t see it and fully decomposed in my tank. Lost several glofish ottos and the snail. I felt terrible. Thanks for the kind feedback!

Currently have Anubias nana’s, bronze wendiiti, and crypt spiralis in the tank.

Also have two GloFish, going to be adding more soon to fill out the school

How do you guys find having the open top ones, I have one with a built in light, the bulb went and I replaced it with a different type that is suction cupped on, i’d prefer one like this picture.

To answer more of your question I do love the ability to slide my light to the front or back of the tank, it makes cleaning the glass lid super easy. It is a Finnex light with a solid feature set and tonssss of red for bob ross happy little plants
